Carlos' place was fantastic and by far the best place we've stayed in Oakland.It's beautifully decorated, well equipped and very comfortable.The location near Lake Merritt was perfect for us while we were visiting family.Thanks for a wonderful stay!
Phenomenal place. Location can't be beat, space was great and more kid-friendly than anywhere we've stayed. Really felt like staying at a friend's place rather than a pseudo-hotel experience like most nowadays. Host was great too in communicating and helping with some of our special requests. We come to Oakland regularly and this will be our first choice for where to stay, going forward.
We found the view of the garden quite peaceful as we ate breakfast each morning. The kids enjoyed reading the many books and playing the games during their downtime. Beds were comfy and bathroom was clean. Carlos was friendly and responsive. We look forward to staying here again.
We all absolutely loved this property. I just about had to drag my sister in law out of it. Very comfortable with a nice walkable distance to the lake. The decor is absolutely lovely and it is much bigger than I expected. Easy trips via ride share into and out of San Francisco. The owners are very responsive. We will definitely book again if we travel back that way.
Great house and great location! Was in town with two of my kids to visit family and loved the house. My kids loved the outside kitties that visited on the porch also!
This place is a fantastic, hidden gem. Carlos is great - really responsive and an overall excellent host. We had a wonderful stay and will definitely be back.
Great location for Oakland visit to see my son. Loved the uniqueness of Carlos ’ place. Lovely neighborhood to just walk around in and admiring the care and work people put into their gardens. Close to Lake Merrit and restaurants in the east bay. Took the BART into the city for Chinese New Year parade and a show.
We had a great time in Carlos's amazing place. It was clean, beautiful and in a great location. Carlos was truly a super host, helpful and kind and his taste in furnishings was awesome. Highly recommended!
Our stay in Oakland was wonderful! The place is beautiful, peaceful and very comfortable. Location is great. It was walkable and safe. Carlos is easy to communicate with, accommodating and hospitable. We would stay here again in a second.
As always, a great place to stay! Carlos is a wonderful host and his upstairs apartment is comfortable and amazingly decorated and equipped. Love staying here. It is close to our daughter’s apartment which makes it super handy for us when we visit Oakland. Thanks again Carlos!
We came west to celebrate a family holiday. This place could not have been more perfect. It had the best outfitted kitchen I have ever encountered at a vacation rental. It was comfortable, spacious, tasteful, and convenient. The whole process was seamless.
