This is an exceptional place in a great neighborhood--safe, convenient, private, well-equipped, modern on a quiet street. Perfect for a couple seeking a week-long stay in Berkeley/Oakland. Walking distance of 3-4 blocks to good restaurants and shopping, though a car is necessary for most other purposes. Stuart is a conscientious host and has constructed a comfortable, highly-livable space. Dinner in the backyard was delightful. Would not hesitate to stay here again.
