*** IMPORTANT NOTE as of 8/27/2022: Please contact the host if there are any discrepancies in the listing details. VRBO has been having recent software issues with their web site and mixing up the listing info, doubling the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and other problems. We'll remove this notice once VRBO fixes the problems. Sorry, we apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused you! ***

Our apartment is within 2 blocks of downtown Alameda with over 50 shops, trendy restaurants, and coffee/tea shops nearby. Unit is recently renovated with bamboo floors, a beautiful kitchen, dining area, living room, and beds complete with high thread count sheets and a Eurotop mattress in the master. Amenities include complimentary use of laundry and game room with a pool table and classic arcade console. Our place is great for couples, business travelers, families (with kids), and big groups.

This ground floor unit is 1200 square feet and will comfortably fit up to 4 guests. In addition to the 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, dining room and kitchen, there is a living room with a large sofa, large LCD TV with a Wii game console and Satellite with premium and sport channels for the enjoyment of our guests.

The bathrooms are supplied with a set of towels for each guest and complimentary personal sized shampoo, body wash, bar soap as well as toilet paper.

The beds are made up with fresh linens and extra blankets are available for each bed. The queen has a Eurotop mattress and is complete with high thread count sheets.

We constantly upgrade the unit for the comfort of our guests and recently installed air conditioning units in all the bedrooms and the family room.

Although we love animals, we unfortunately, are very allergic to dogs and cats and other types of service animals and humbly ask that you consider other rentals if you have a service animal.

wonderful hosts, nice unit
Stanley and Virginia are wonderful hosts. We needed to extend our original stay and they were very helpful and supportive in making that happen. the unit is very pleasant. We were not vacationing but they have many amenities like games, pool table, basketball hoop, etc that would be great fun on a vacation.

Wonderful Stay
We stayed at this property to go to an Oakland A’s baseball game. The location in Alameda is perfect - walking distance from shops and restaurants. Very close to a bus stop too, which will take you to the BART station. Also, the actual apartment is well equipped - it even has a fully functioning wii which we played every night after returning from our activities. We loved our stay and would stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Stanley & Virginia Siu

Host profile image
We welcome you to Alameda and hope to host you. Although we are new to VRBO, we've been hosting since 2016, and to date, we have hosted over 500 groups, and if you see us on another site, you'll see that we have been Super Hosts continuously since we first started in 2016. Many of our guests stay for business, for vacation, to visit family in the area, or are locals needing a place to stay while renovating their homes. We have 4 units of various sizes and configurations to meet different needs. We love to travel and understand what you as a traveler need and try to make your stay care free by providing clean accommodations and the little things that you need, but might forget to bring or might not want to buy (who wants to bring or buy one laundry pod?!). When not hosting, Stanley continues to develop IP for his high tech startup, Virginia cares for family and elderly parents, and we both continue to volunteer in our local religious charity.

Why they chose this property

As continuous Super Hosts since 2016 and having hosted over 500 groups to date, we have units that range from 1 bedroom to 4 bedrooms. The smallest 1 bedroom unit is great for the solo or double business traveler and is more comfortable than similarly priced hotel rooms. The 4 bedroom units are economical for larger groups being more cost effective than renting multiple rooms at a hotel. And we have a 2 bedroom unit for the in-betweeners. As all the units include a kitchen, our units are more cost effective and more comfortable than comparably configured residence type inns. We converted our large garage into a game room and equipped it with a pool table, ping pong table, and classic arcade console for your relaxation and enjoyment. We have a laundry room with 2 washers and 2 dryers. The game room and laundry room both are complimentary for our guests. Although we may not have many reviews yet, you can find us elsewhere and see the many positive reviews we have gotten so far.

What makes this property unique

Besides comfortable and care free accommodations, we are just a few blocks away from downtown Alameda where there are many shops, coffee and boba drink shops, and restaurants serving many different yummy cuisines. The nearby historic Alameda Theater continues to show top rated movies while also serving food in their luxury loungers for those wanting dinner and a show! We are about 15 minutes away from the Oakland Colisseum (Go A's) and Oracle Arena (former home of the Warriors) and about 30 minutes away Chase Center (current home of the world champion Golden State Warriors).
