This was my first solo trip stay at an Airbnb, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience or a more welcoming host. This location is stellar: just a few minutes on foot from the Ashby BART, on a quiet residential street. The room was clean, bright, and had enough space for me to work remotely via laptop. Throughout my stay, Erika was gracious, communicative, and willing to share her knowledge about the area. I truly enjoyed our conversations and appreciated her accommodation of my hectic schedule. Thank you, Erika!
One caveat: if you are particularly bothered by barking dogs, then you may want to communicate with Erika beforehand. Her dog, Obie, tends to bark when you are entering the house, but outside of that is shy and ENORMOUSLY sweet. If you're a dog lover, as I am, you will probably enjoy this rental even more :)
