Places to eat include: Pizzaiolo, Shangri-La Vegan, Bakesale Betty, Cholita Linda, Wood Tavern, and all sorts of other great places on College and Telegraph Avenue. Whole Foods and the Tuesday and Sunday Farmers Markets are all walking distance. The space When I step into my space from the street it feels like I have just passed through a portal into some place unexpected. How did I fit all of the essential comforts of home into about 500 square feet without it feeling cramped or cluttered? I think my space is cozy, relatively quiet and very relaxing. I really did try to think of every desirable convenience so please let me know what I'm missing in your home away from home. Now outside, on a warm sunny day I think you would enjoy sitting outside behind the gate inconspicuously watching the neighborhood traffic pass by. People walking, jogging or bike riding to the nearby Park, Dry Cleaners, Laundromat, Whole Foods Market, Berkeley Bowl organic food store and a host of other quirky storefront places that are sprinkled throughout the neighborhood. Including the tailor shop and men's clothing store right next. door. Right on the corner there is a Subway Sandwich Shop, an awesome Gourmet Pizza / Bakery, a Corner Convenience Store too. Guest access Guest have access to everything behind the gate with the exception of one cabinet in the kitchen I use for storage. Other things to note The space is newly remodeled. Everything has been updated except for the cold tile floors. With that said you maybe the first to use something so your feed back sent directly to me would be helpful so I can make the necessary adjustments for the next guest. Regarding the gate I am aware that coming in and out can be cumbersome especially with bags in hand. Open both wooden gates inward all the way to make it easier to get in and out of the security door. The security door must be shut to close the wooden gate doors. I extended the gate as far out onto the sidewalk as the property line would allow me to in in order to provide separation and security. I have really grown to love it. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Hob - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Tile flooring in public areas - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Policies ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions An adult aged 18 or older must assume all liability for the booking You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Check-out instructions The host requires you to complete the following before checking out: Remove personal items Turn off the lights and lock the doors If the pull out bed was used please leave it pulled out for the cleaner to refresh.

Although it sits on a busy street, it was relatively quiet and private with the privacy gate. Everything needed was provided, down to the little details that were appreciated (q-tips, sound machine, and weighted blanket to name a few). It was very clean and well maintained. We hope to stay again next time we visit. ##### Leo A.

High ceilings and thoughtful design make this studio rental spacious. As indicated already, spotless upkeep. Easy to feel relaxed and safely at home. We’ll go back. ##### Robert W.
