The unit was very nice, spacious, and well maintained. Our host was very gracious. There was a very nice patio outside of the unit.

About the host

Hosted by Fouad

Host profile image
I was born and raised in Algeria. I experienced the independence war of the country as a kid and that gave me a deep sense of justice and equality. I was fortunate to have had access to education and was able to get a Ph.D. in engineering from Stanford. I dedicated 25 years of my professional life to a non-profit organization that made a difference in fighting poverty, protecting lives and livelihoods and providing opportunities for education and jobs to the least privileged and neglected.

Why they chose this property

The guest unit is attached to me home. I like the diversity, creativity and vibes of Oakland.

What makes this property unique

Safe, comfortable, quiet, great views and convenient
