This place was absolutely perfect for me. Everything is immaculate and new. Comfortable and clean furniture and a reasonable work space using the kitchen table. The place is very well furnished, with nothing lacking except a TV and who uses TV nowadays? I prefer zero TVs personally. The lovely Lake Merritt is irresistibly close, and restaurants line the street on the way to it. Parking is a slight challenge, as you need to park on the steep side streets, so if you are disabled this might be a challenge, but hey this is Oakland and it's the same everywhere. The unit is super private, very quiet, and 300 feet from Safeway. I had some Internet issues at first, and I'm a super nerd with bandwidth needs, but this only served to highlight what a great host Jintang is. He swooped in and changed the router and explored lots of possibilities with me. I really appreciated how he listened closely to my suggestions and implemented just what I asked for. In the end the Internet was "good and stable." I got 13 Mbps down, 4 Mbps upload, enough for video conferences but occasionally hiccupping or cutting out (due to AT&T). I believe he is working on making it "excellent." What else... well, honestly, it's just a great place. If you think you'll like it you will.
