Sweet and nice place

We enjoyed to stay at Stella house, She was very communicative, we found details like the wine bottle and the chocolates in the rooms that gave us a warming welcome.

Nice place to stay in Oakland fairly quiet with street parking. I stayed during the Christmas 2022

Oakland getaway

The rooms are cozzy, clean, and nicely decorated. It is was quick to check in and the host was communicative. I highly recommend it. It is closeby to the bart train and close to restaurants in downtown.

A bright welcoming space

We loved Stella's ground floor apartment -- clean, bright, spacious, it served all of our needs. The kitchen had just enough of everything utensil-wise for us to cook simple meals. Very convenient neighborhood with easy parking. The only caveat is that we sometimes heard music at night -- loud bass on someone's sound system. But otherwise this is a real find and we enjoyed being able to spread out.

This was a lovely, safe place for us to stay while visiting the Bay Area. The house is cozy and clean, the neighborhood is quiet, and we could walk 5 minutes and hop on a bus that would get us to BART and into any part of the Bay Area in a few minutes. Overall, we had a great stay at Stella’s place.
