Elisabeth’s place is a home. I was in Oakland for a business trip and they placed me in hotels for my first two weeks and I convinced my boss to allow me to stay for an AirBnB instead. By the time I stayed in Elisabeth’s place I’ve already spent 3 weeks in Oakland and only spent a day over each weekend with my family- I was homesick. I didn’t think I was gonna get a good nights rest anymore but oh my gosh! I slept soooo much better in her place compared to all the hotels I’ve been in! I fell in love with the tiny details in that little home and after a long day at work, it really felt nice to go back to that. I still missed my family but somehow i didn’t feel as lonely in her home compared to my previous two weeks.
Checking in was easy, the space itself was amazing, the host responds quickly and sounds super friendly, and there’s a bonus where you might meet a cat that looks at you like you owe him money. 10/10 would recommend anyone to stay here
