This home is a must stay if you’re in this part of Oakland. I stayed here for a two week work trip, I was working in Emeryville, but this home was a quick 15 minute walk to my office. The apartment is a basement unit with its own private entrance. Aaron and Shanthi have thought of everything you may need, including whatever toiletry you may have forgotten to pack. They made sure to check on me during my trip to ensure I was comfortable. The neighborhood was so quiet and the neighbors so friendly, always eager to offer a smile. You can occasionally hear the family walking upstairs, but it was never loud enough to be a bother. And I was surprised at how I never heard their voices, the floors must be very thick above the basement ceiling. You’re a quick 10-20 minute walk from whatever you may need, I didn’t have a car my whole stay and only got a Lyft once or twice.
I really can’t say enough about it, just rent it you won’t be disappointed. Oh my only complaint, was the bed was so comfortable that most mornings I had trouble getting out of bed to go to work!
