Charming, welcoming, cozy, and in a great location!
Loved this spot for exploring Alameda - which itself is a great city - and the rest of the Bay Area. Impeccably clean, adorable, and peaceful. A perfect place to come home all week to after exploring the area.
Super clean, perfect for my husband and I. Loved that it was close enough to walk to things in Alameda. Super clean, had everything we could have needed, 5+ rating! The host was very helpful and welcoming!
This property lived up to all it was advertised to be. Clean, beautiful, quiet, and cozy. It had everything you need, and was close to all. Definitely would stay again.
Great location, updated interior. Amazing shower. Visiting family on the island and this was the perfect place for us to sleep at night. Bicycling distance to all areas of the island.
Loved the downstairs setup. Everything was clean, neat and convenient. Loved having the laundry available to us.
Would like to try upstairs next year when we bring our daughter out with us.
Was just as listed, small but well equipped kitchen, charming garden, nice neighborhood.As others have mentioned, soundproofing form upstairs apartment is lacking.
Beautifully equipped 1-bedroom apartment. Clean, high-end fixtures in quiet neighborhood w/ample parking. Great water pressure in the shower, comfortable bed. Sleeper couch was adequate. Ground coffee was provided; very much appreciated. The garden is a special treat; mature fruit trees, hydrangea plants, trumpet vines, and honeysuckle…just lovely.
My friend and I stayed while visiting her son at Cal. The house is in a great location. Shops, restaurants are a short drive (or walk) away. It is also conveniently close to San Fransisco and Berkeley. The owner was VERY helpful and answered any questions we had quickly.
The house itself is beautifully decorated, super clean and the bed is beyond comfy! Huge shower, built in refrigerator, and lots of windows. The charming backyard has rocking chairs to sit and enjoy all the trees, flowers and plants.
If we go visit again, we will be back!!
The property is clean, has all that you need and is functional. When neighbors above are not careful, you hear a lot of noise when they walk and this was annoying. Especially when they do not sleep early. The last day we had noise until 2 AM. The host was responsive.
I would personally like to tell everyone that this is a very clean easy to get to rental(I need 10 minutes from the Oakland international airport) . It is so easy to get to some of those wonderful restaurants as well as a Shopping Center post office, and a lot of beautiful little coffee shops. The cottage is on the bottom level that overlooks orange trees, Bougainvillea‘s, jasmine and a variety of other plants that are so inviting along with two chairs. Everything you need is right there on a quick trip to the Shopping Center will help complete your trip , we are also very close to the ferry. The relaxing and inexpensive ferry can take you right into San Francisco or Sausalito depending on where you would like to venture. Thank you to the owner for accommodating me with my dates… When I visit Alameda again, I plan on staying here for a second visit!
This is a great place to stay if you're visiting the San Francisco area. Supwr closw to the ferry, on a nice, quiet street. The place was immaculate and i would definitely stay there again.
