The place was very spacious and very clean but the property itself is a bit run down and as another review noted had a musty odor although that seemed to get a little better after a few days. Although on the second floor, the fact some windows did not latch was a bit of a concern. Gated parking was a key feature for the neighborhood. On the plus side, nice shower, kitchen and laundry. Comfortable sleeping. Very walkable - to BART and grocery. Reasonable price.

Positives: the host was very responsive and respectful and addressed concerns . There were plenty of dishes and cutlery and having an air conditioner/ heater in each bedroom is nice. The unit is gated and locked which feels safe and private. Negative: In the effort to be transparent so others can make informed decisions . Unfortunately, our experience with this unit was very different from what was portrayed in the listing photos. After arriving and spending the night, we noticed multiple concerns including a strong odor in the home, visible water damage and deterioration throughout the property, damaged electrical outlets that did not feel safe to use, and windows without proper locks. The condition of the home appeared significantly more worn and neglected than expected. The host was polite and did agree to refund the unused nights after we communicated our concerns, which we appreciated. However, we ultimately did not feel comfortable or safe continuing our stay and checked out early. I would encourage the host to address the maintenance and safety issues, as the property has potential to be really cute and nice but currently does not match the condition presented in the listing. I would encourage people to ask about repairs before writing the property off because like I said , it has a lot of beautiful potential

The rental was just as described in both the pictures and host's description as well. The rooms were clean and had great natural lighting, the place was spacious, the closets were huge, the shower was great, and extra bits like laundry detergent were included. The rental sits just off of a somewhat main street - vehicle and foot traffic noise present but seldomly attention grabbing. We enjoyed our stay. If you find yourself needing to be Oakland and are looking for a place to shower and sleep, this place will do just fine.

Great place to stay, check in and out was incredibly easy. Kitchen was fully stocked with dishes and cutlery. Towels and wash clothes were provided and neatly folded in both bedrooms. Personal ac and heaters in both bedrooms and extra linens and blankets were readily available. 10/10 would definitely recommend staying here.

Comfortable and convenient
The property was clean. All amenities worked great. Beds were comfortable. Very conveniently located to Berkeley and SF. We were able to park our car in the driveway behind a locked gate. The only limitation for some may be that you must climb outside stairs to get to the rental.
