This property is in a great spot if you’re visiting Berkeley. It’s bright, spacious, and easy to check in. The owner was super responsive and helpful. Would absolutely stay here again!
Sunny spacious rooms on a busy street that felt like an oasis of peace. We had a great stay using kitchen some and eating out some as Rockridge is a foodie’s dream neighborhood.
Can’t beat the location! Spacious 2BR was within walking distance shops and restaurants - plus BART. Comfy beds. We’ll equipped kitchen. Great spot for short or long stays. Ample street parking.
We really enjoyed our stay here, and since our main purpose was to visit our son and attend the Big Game, we also appreciated being right next to the bus stop where we could hop on for a short ride up College to Memorial stadium. Also nice to be really close to all of the great restaurants on College. Chris was a great communicator and we had no problems with anything during our stay
The property was as depicted in the photos. It was an excellent place for our adult daughter living in the area to join us. Our pooch, Rocco, was thrilled to be able to join us too!Quick walk to Safeway, coffee shops and restaurants. Short drive to the many museums and parks. Chris was responsive and welcomed suggestions. We would happily stay here again!
We enjoyed our stay!
The location is great - there are many great restaurants, coffee shops, and stores within easy walking distance. Free street parking can be found nearby but keep in mind the occasional street cleaning day. The neighborhood was also nice to walk around during the day. The building was great and the accommodation comfortable. If you have the windows open expect some street noise which you'd expect from the area.
PROS: Host communication was always very prompt; Location was convenient - walking distance to stores and restaurants; Size of the home was great (two full bedrooms, and two large living/family rooms); nice size kitchen, kitchen nook, and laundry area; the home was clean with ample bedding and towels. CONS: Stairs up to the home make it a challenge when you're traveling with a dog or bringing up your luggage; thin walls and floors (I did not feel comfortable leaving my 5-month-old puppy in his crate for more than a few minutes for fear that he would bother my neighbors); busy street so it is worth the extra 12/day for off-street parking; the off-street parking was a very narrow driveway, so if you're driving a large SUV (as I was), it can be a challenge getting in and out; a very small garden area in the back was not very conducive for a dog. Having to take him down the stairs and around the block to do his business was very cumbersome; no AC and it was pretty warm when I was there (they do have three portable fans though); no dishwasher (how can can those dishes really be?). If you're traveling alone or with one other person (or couple), it's a nice place. Just know that your voice will be heard and you will hear voices downstairs.
We really enjoyed this apartment and found it filled our needs in almost every way. The location was outstanding (near freeways, near great north Oakland/Berkeley neighborhoods). The bedrooms and fold out bed – including the door and privacy curtains in the living room - made for 3 nicely functional bedrooms. The kitchen, laundry room, breakfast nook: all great. Only critique: reading lamps! This made the fold out bedroom especially awkward (thankfully I had my headlamp for reading in bed). But there should be some lamps around both sofas and easy chairs. Otherwise, really great!!
Overall, we had a very comfortable stay! The house is incredibly spacious and located in a perfect spot close to great restaurants and walking paths. My only minor suggestions for improvement would be adding a better setup for trash and upgrading the TV. Would definitely stay again.
The host’s follow up was very prompt. The flat was commodious, well stocked, warm, and comfortable with some very homely touches. A perfect place to spread out and enjoy the culinary scene of Rockridge.
It was easy to make simple things. We did borrow a coffee filter we prefer pour over coffee. But everything in the rooms was pleasant and the place was clean. Nice views of hills and the yard also the flat is close to many transportation options, and so walkable to alot of great food and coffee!
The property used exactly is described and it's close to a lot of nice stuff in the Berkeley Oakland area. The host is very responsive and a great communicator.
Everything was Fantastic. It was extremely clean and spacious. we loved having a wsher/dryer. The neighborood is very safe and has a lot to offer interms of food, retail shopping. place is amazing! Fantastic !
Spacious, clean, uncluttered upper unit. Everything (stove, shower, microwave, etc.) was simple to operate and worked well. Near BART, Rockridge, and a short bus to Cal campus. One hiccup in our four days. I texted Chris and he called immediately and walked me through steps to resolution. A plus.
Solid apartment with a fantastic location.The apartment was spacious and had everything we needed. Host was responsive and kind.I’m hoping this can be our go to Vrbo whenever we visit Oakland.
Chris' property was just what we needed for our visit to family in the area. A great location, a comfy apartment and easy to communicate with him.
Plenty of life's necessities were on hand to make our stay comfortable. Plenty of shops, restaurants and cafés nearby as well.
Walking distance to many restaurants and shops. Plenty of street parking and allowed our pup to stay with us.
Only negative was the wood floors that made it tricky to walk quietly with being on the second level.
Seamless Check in process and check out. Chris kept in touch and responded quickly when i messaged. Very sunny and spacious in a very nice location - easy walk to some great places to eat. The apartment was immaculate and had all the necessary basics.
