STAY 5 MINUTES AWAY

Great location. Only minutes to the local restaurants, shops and bus transportation.Very clean, cozy and had everything I needed. Will stay there again when visiting my relatives.

Perfect for my quick stay!

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.

Wonderful location, walking distance to grocery store and Piedmont avenue. Great value for the money.
