Sweet studio apartment. Mostly quiet although you will hear the family upstairs walking around. It did not bother us at all. Bed is comfortable, kitchen is cute and contained everything we needed, although we did not ever try to cook a big meal. There is adequate closet space, a great little bathroom and a very useful small table and chairs which we definitely used as we both had some work to do. The area is quite beautiful and we were able to take lovely long walks every morning and evening. The studio is somewhat smaller that the photos convey, but it is certainly very adequate. All in all, a very pleasant stay. This would be out first choice for staying in Oakland!
