This was a perfect place to spend a few weeks while studying at Berkeley. The location is central to fantastic restaurants, walkable to campus, and has a beautiful deck with views of San Francisco. Check in was seamless, the studio was impeccable, and communication with the host was a breeze. 10/10.

This VRBO was exactly what we were looking for. It’s incredibly close to the UC Berkeley campus but remains peaceful and private. The interior was very spacious and had a lovely, charming character. Every amenity we needed was included and in great condition. We would definitely stay here again!
