Stayed at Derek's place with my girlfriend and it lives up to the expectations. It was a great space to live and work. If you have two adults working remotely and regularly using video no need to worry. Nice little touches all over like the really cool industrial coffee table, the Marshall speakers, double basin sink, and refrigerator with Sabbath mode (a first for me 😅). I appreciate this kind of attention to detail. Oh and those high ceilings!
I really enjoyed the space itself but some of the surrounding areas in this part of Oakland aren't great for walking around. I would strongly advise having a car, you'll find the parking very convenient and worry free. Downtown Oakland is not that far to walk but I'd probably only make the trip if it was daytime and with nice weather (I had the luck to come when it was actually raining).
I think Derek's place would be great for a couple that wants a very unique space to live and work for a while and doesn't need to have everything within a stones throw. Uber Eats was definitely my friend during my stay.
