Everything was wonderful and as advertised…apart from a bit of broken glass found in a remote area of the apartment. After reaching out via text, our host graciously offered to come and clean it for us!

The host was great and let us check in super early since we arrived in the morning! She also sent a detailed instruction sheet. The location, although tucked behind a big medical building where Google Maps couldn’t quite find, was super close to piedmont ave so we could walk for food/shops and it felt safe. The house is quirky but was clean and had everything we needed for our short stay!

The apartment was quite spacious and comfortable. It's really a complete apartment not just a studio space. The patio is modest but would be nice in a warmer season. (My visit was January.) The kitchen was well-equipped with cookware, appliances, silverware, plates etc etc. (although I used only the cups & coffee maker). The host was immediately available by text when I had a question about the access directions.

This spot was Just Right! It has all the charm & idiosyncrasies of a building constructed in 1908. Felt like home to me having lived in spaces like this one in my hometown of San Francisco. Would come again.The apartment was private, clean, & uncluttered. And yet, beautiful flowers welcomed me on the dining table as I arrived. Practical supplies like pens, scissors & tape made life details easy. Excellent wifi. Host Laura was attentive & responded immediately to requests upon my arrival & thoughtfully took care of outdoor chairs during the changeable early spring weather. The heater kept me warm whenever seasonal chill hit the air. The kitchen was well supplied & perfect for morning coffee & light meals.The enclosed table & chair just outside the front door was a favorite spot for me to spend outside time in early morning watching stellar jays play among the foliage of the old growth garden, even as rain fell. I called it my "Oakland nest." I was here on a family visit so the refuge in the down time, & solitude were a gift. Many mornings I had breakfast & worked at Caffé Chiave, just a short walk to Piedmont Ave where I also found fun shopping & handy places such as a CVS. Location was ideal: driveway parking, just a 12 minute drive to friends, family & dining in the Elmwood area of Berkeley as well as a 24 minute straight shot down Broadway to catch 24 through the Caldecott tunnel to family in suburbs beyond. Highly recommend this place as a private home away from home.

Very good location if you a visiting the Piedmont area. Airy, light and comfortable. Feels very secure and safe.Listing says Laundry, but it is not included it is a pay laundry. Doesn't have a lot of dishes, glasses or utensil. It is an older property, so the floors are not level.
