Riza and Miguel were very responsive and the condo was very comfortable. The most important thing for me was that the sheets and towels were laundered with unscented detergent! We also really appreciated off street parking since street parking is very crowded.

Michael, we’re glad you had a comfortable stay at our condo for 2 weeks. And find this location pleasing. We go above and beyond for our guests during their stay. We’re available at a moments notice for all inquires about our home and our town. We are constantly striving to be better and like to understand what would have earned us 5 stars instead of your 4 stars?

Another great stay

Everything about our stay was top-notch. This is our second time here and we will definitely be back. Everything was easy, including an accommodation for arriving a little past their check- in window. The super plus part is the secure parking space! Super comfortable bed and kitchen that is well-equipped for our cooking needs.

Perfect location and safe!

Very thorough information was provided for the stay. While the decor was simple and maybe a bit of sprucing up might be nice, it was clean and had what we needed. The bed was comfortable and we slept great. It helped that we felt secure in knowing that oir rental car was safely tucked in the gated parking garage. We were in town for a wedding and this rental drew our attention because of thecomment around secure parking.

I was so glad to find this cozy, well-appointed condo in such a great location. The unit is nicely updated, clean, and quiet, and is an easy walk to restaurants, shops, and grocery stores. Hosts Riza and Miguel are great at communicating and staying in touch to make sure everything is going well. I highly recommend it and would love to stay here again if I return to the area.

Great location and experience

We were visiting our daughter and Riza’s apartment was within walking distance of her house. Check- in and unloading was easy and the garage parking spot was VERY helpful for us. Kitchen is well- stocked with all we needed for meals we made. The bed was very comfortable - this is always a plus for us. Over all a great experience!

Riza was a great host. She let me check in early as I arrived earlier than expected. She was in contact with us throughout the stay to make sure everything was going well. The apartment was very clean and the neighbors were nice people, even saying good morning to you. I will definitely get this place again as it was very comfortable and very quite.

The location is very close to Piedmont and Lake Merritt and all of the wonderful restaurants/shops. We appreciated the designated, secure parking on the premises as sometimes street parking can get crowded. The condo definitely served our needs. The kitchen had everything we needed but admittedly, we did minimal cooking - the cafes were a big draw! The bed is comfortable, leans more towards soft but worked for one of us who prefers a firmer bed. The rooms are spacious; plenty of space in the bedroom to accommodate luggage and move around easily. The bathroom is small but worked out fine. We liked having the large vanity and sink separate from the toilet/tub area. Check in/out are easy and Riza responded quickly. We would stay here again!

Great place in a great location

This place has the classic look and feel of a modern Oakland apartment building that is just the right balance between centrally located and private. I felt such a home, I wish I had booked a few more days (or weeks!). The hosts, Riza & Miguel, were absolutely fabulous, very accommodating and communicated quickly and kindly - I couldn't have asked for a better stay. The proximity to Piedmont was so nice, just being able to walk down the hill and browse the many local shops and restaurants was great. I forgot how nice it was to live so close to Piedmont Ave, and I think it's gotten even nicer since I lived there 10 years ago. All around, I had a great stay and I highly recommend to anyone looking for a nice, clean, chill place in one of the best spots to live in the Bay Area.

Liked: Cleanliness, communication
Disliked: Location
The unit was OK but was located in a very old building. There was an awful stale smell walking into the lobby. The parking was secure but getting our small car into the stall took 5 minutes. It;s located between a pillar and the wall, just inside the gate. The washer/dryer was out of order. The neighborhood was very sketchy. We won't be staying at this location again.
