We enjoyed 5 days in this spacious apartment within walking distance of Lake Merritt. The neighborhood is quiet and parking is available. The kitchen had everything we needed and the courtyard offered lovely space to relax in the afternoon sun. Karina was very responsive and check-in and out instructions were clear and concise. Thank you!
What a GEM! The apartment is so cute and cozy with all the amenities you need! The bed was SO comfortable!The locations is killer, super close to the lake and lots of places to explore! Wonderful, friendly and communicative hosts. We have family very close by and would absolutely stay here again!
The home was nicely arranged wit whatever we needed for our stay. Nice touch was creamer and coffee for first day or two of coffee which many hosts don't have available
Extremely clean with all provided house supplies easy to locate. Having access to the driveway was really great for avoiding street parking. Also it's a great place to stay if you have little ones they provide small basic furnitures like high chairs and stools.
We loved the decor/vibe of this place. Spacious and thoughtfully decorated. The kitchen was sooo well-equippedâI brought spices and a nutribullet, none of which I needed! The downstairs patio was so lovely and peaceful, I wish weâd had time to use it more. So nice to let our dog out down the stairs first thing in the Morning. Only 10 Minutesâ drive away from Our daughter, it was fairly convenient. Didnât adore the neighborhood, but it was mostly quiet. Jerl, one of the hosts, was friendly, helpful, and responsive to the few requests we had.2 notes: their dog, Sushi, whined st night when no one was there. And bed is very soft, a bit too much for us other reviewers have loved it).
Very nice and it was easy to walk to Lake Merritt. I did not rent a car and found it relatively easy to get public transit, including the train to SF. Host very nice and responsive.
Loved the apartment for its charm, neighborhood and comfort. Stayed 10 days and enjoyed our days before going to the festival. Convenient to use Uber, we would come back next year
Beautiful property! Fabulous back yard. Walked to restaurants. Karina gave us great suggestions on where to eat and was very commutativeđ. We will definately stay againđ.
Great water pressure, lovely rooms, wonderful back patio, everything you need to cook, plenty of linens, beautiful outside foliage, quiet neighborhood, close to shopping and restaurants.
I was very pleased with the proximity of this place to where my cousins live (there are plenty of nearby restaurants, so we ate out). The best part was being able to do laundry as I had another week of traveling!
We stayed at this very comfortable property for four nights. Itâs as the description says - no fisheye lenses or exaggerations. The bed is very comfy, as is the living room furniture. Full kitchen with everything youâll need. At first we were a bit concerned about the neighborhood, but I felt perfectly safe walking to the store. Our host was remarkable. PG&E shut off the power for a few hours one day, which messed up their modem. Rather than have me wait until it was convenient for her, Karina went to the store, got the new modem and had the WiFi up and running while we were out. She accommodated every request, and did it with a smile. We were very pleased with this property and would stay there again in a heartbeat. heartbeat. convenient for her, Kieran
Overall a comfortable stay! I wish we couldâve had an easy checking in process but the cleanliness coming in was great! Thank you for the great communication. Definitely would come back to this bnb.
Comfortable home walkable from lake Merritt and restaurants along Lakeshore and Grand Ave. Karina was responsive and flexible, and the check-in process was smooth.
Karina's apartment near Lake Merritt, Oakland, is clean, charming, spacious, functional, well equipped, comfortable, and centrally located in East Bay. Karina is highly responsive and works with tenants to accommodate their needs. A great stay!
We loved our stay here! It was so convenient to have baby items provided. The space is large, clean and even walkable to cafes. Definitely would recommend with place to family or friends!
The neighborhood has issues with a homeless population which every big city faces today. But with that said, everyone I spoke to in the neighborhood was super kind and we never felt unsafe. extremely tight
I'm a designer and mom. I take pride in my property and am responsive to my guests' needs. Since I live onsite, I interact with my guests directly â from check ins, to cleaning, to repairs, and anything in between.
