This is surprisingly a really nice Airbnb. Now, photos can be deceiving but I feel like this host delivered in every aspect. Checking in was super simple. You will need to download an app which is fine. You’ll get a code to check in. Other than that, the room was very roomy and clean.
I think my only complaint about this place is that there is some construction going around the area and one of the days I was there, they woke me up at 8am with a lot of jack hammering. It seems the whole neighborhood is in development. The neighborhood left me with mixed feels. It feels run down but also new. There’s a lot of new complex. But overall seems pretty safe. There’s a lot of bars literally a block away. And Rainey Street is a 10 minute walk (or a $6 Uber if you’re lazy like me lol)
Getting around is easy with Uber. You can walk to most places from the place. Overall, definitely worth every penny. I would definitely recommend.
And just quick tip: if you’ve never used a Yale Key Lock, cover your palm over the lock and it will lock. Couldn’t figure it out when I first used it how to lock the door without waiting. If you put your hand over it after you close it, it will lock.
Also, there’s a grocery store called The Bee Grocery. Target looks like it’s going to be opening soon but if it’s not open when you stay, go there. It’s literally around the corner but they sell a little of everything.
