Wir sind als 4-köpfige Familie kurz nach dem Check in direkt wieder abgereist, da sich die Wohnung in einer aus unserer Sicht problematischen Gegend befindet, in der wir uns nicht wohl und sicher gefühlt hätten. Die Wohnung sah aus wie in der Beschreibung und machte einen sauberen Eindruck.

Hi, I’m Karen! Originally from Taiwan and raised in Sacramento, I’ve called Oakland home for the past 10 years. I’m passionate about design, hospitality, and creating spaces where people feel comfortable and inspired. Hosting allows me to share my love for Oakland, its vibrant culture, and all the amazing dining and outdoor experiences it has to offer.

When I’m not hosting, I enjoy working on creative projects, exploring local spots, and connecting with the community. I believe in going the extra mile to make every guest’s stay special, and I look forward to welcoming you to my little corner of the Bay Area!

Why they chose this property


I chose this neighborhood because it perfectly captures the heart and soul of Oakland. It’s vibrant yet peaceful, with a mix of historic charm and modern energy. What I love most is how close everything is—Lake Merritt, with its stunning views and outdoor activities, is just minutes away, and Downtown Oakland offers a variety of incredible restaurants, shops, and cultural experiences.

The sense of community here is amazing, and I enjoy the diverse and creative spirit of the area. Whether it’s exploring the local farmers’ markets, catching a live performance, or just taking a stroll through the tree-lined streets, there’s always something special to discover. It’s the perfect place to feel at home while experiencing all the best Oakland has to offer!

What makes this property unique

What makes my property truly unique is its blend of modern luxury and thoughtful design, all within a charming Victorian setting. The soundproof walls create a peaceful retreat, while the sleek, modern features add a touch of sophistication. From ambient LED lighting that sets the perfect mood to carefully curated decor, every detail has been designed to make your stay comfortable and memorable.

Guests love the inviting atmosphere, quiet sanctuary, and convenient location—just minutes from Downtown Oakland, Lake Merritt, and an easy drive to San Francisco. It’s not just a place to stay; it’s a home that feels both relaxing and inspiring, making it the perfect base for your Bay Area adventure!
