About this apartment rental
We have a charming, family friendly, 2 bedroom 1ba apartment near the Grand Lake theater and Lake Merrit. The apartment is located in a Craftsman era home, near Lakeshore and Grand Ave in Oakland, which are two very popular avenues with lots to offer.
The living room is bright and spacious and includes a new queen size sleeper sofa and flat screen ROKU TV, Wi Fi is also included. There is also a full size dining table in this room.
The first bedroom has a queen size bed that is very comfortable. There is also a vanity, dresser and full closet. We have a toddler mattress, Graco Pack n Play, baby bouncer seat, and large wooden activity cube/toy for small children stored in this closet for your use, if you happen to be traveling with kids.
The second bedroom has a futon with a queen size mattress, that can be used as an extra seating area or it may be converted to a bed. This room also has built in closets with ample storage and extra bedding. Also, there are some games in the closets, available to use.
The bathroom was recently renovated and has a shower over tub. It's clean and nicely appointed. The eat in kitchen is set with a small table for 2, that also has a leaf to expand out to seat 4. The kitchen is fully equipped with all your basic cooking tools and utensils. It has a full refrigerator and freezer, full oven with stovetop, microwave, toaster, and coffee maker.
Our neighborhood has a great sense of community and is very walkable, with many restaurants, cafes, bars, and shops all within a few minutes. We have a Trader Joe s market and Safeway grocery store within walking distance. And every Saturday you can walk a few blocks to the Grand Lake Farmers Market, which is the best market in the area, hands down! There, you will find organic produce, a variety of foods and entertainment. It is also a quick 15 minutes to downtown San Francisco and only 10 minutes to historic Jack London Square in Oakland, by car. The AC Transit buses run to the Ferry Terminals at Jack London or to BART, so it is easy to get around with or without a car.

We had a lovely stay. The location is very convenient. Quite close to the local markets. Lake Merritt is less than 10 mins walk. The hosts are very communicative. We used the kitchen which is well appointed. In summary, a five star stay for us.

6 / 10Average·Sep 2023
Pros: The place was spacious and in a good location. Cons: everything seemed secondhand or worn, ants in the bathroom, no top sheets on the beds or any spare sheets in storage, and two windows had broken locks which I immediately alerted the owners about. They initially responded by asking for details but then stopped communicating with me for over an hour. I opened a case with VRBO customer service and then the owners came up with a solution but they didn’t even offer a discount for the inconvenience. Wouldn’t stay again.
