Sweet, Spacious Garden Apartment Rockridge/Temescal

Beautiful, spacious apartment on a quiet street in the middle of it all! Walking distance to BART, College Ave, wonderful restaurants, markets and fun shopping. Perfect for people re-locating who want a slightly extended stay to explore the area.

This is completely separate apartment in the lower level of a beautiful Mediterranean home. It has its own private entrance. There is an eat-in kitchen, separate dining & living room & lovely outdoor courtyard. Plenty of street parking is generally available. There is also a sofa bed available with a one time charge of $25 for extra linens, towels, etc.

This apartment is not suitable for children between the ages of 1 and 11.

Our fully equipped kitchen has a refrigerator, gas range, microwave, and ample cabinet space. The eat-in dining area can seat 2-4. There is a separate dining room with space for up to 6.

There is one private bedroom with a queen sized bed and bedding, large closet, desk and 2 chests of drawers. Additionally, there is a twin sleep sofa. The living room has a flat screen TV.

There is a private bathroom with a shower and tub.

Please note - there is absolutely no smoking anywhere on the property.

The owner of the property lives on the property. I am the host and am often available to greet you upon arrival and am reachable by text from 8:30am to 11pm.

Other things to note

Any stays longer than 2 weeks require an interim cleaning. There is an additional charge of $85 for the extra cleaning, which includes top to bottom cleaning of the apartment, clean linens and freshly made bed, clean towels, sparkling clean kitchen and bathroom.

Any guests using the sleep sofa will be charged a one-time $50 fee, regardless of the number of guests in the group. This charge covers extra linens, pillows & blankets for the sleep sofa.

Parties are absolutely not permitted and quiet hours are from 10pm to 7am.

The fun and popular Rockridge and Temescal neighborhoods are some of the best in Oakland. The apartment is centrally located just a couple blocks in either direction to these highly walkable neighborhoods found on College, Claremont and Telegraph Avenues. You will be delighted to find an abundance of coffee houses, markets, cafes, pubs, boutiques, parks, playgrounds and more.

We are 2.5 miles to the UC Berkeley campus and a few blocks from CCA. Trader Joe's and Whole Foods are very close by. We are also very close to other great neighborhoods such as Piedmont, Lake Merritt and Montclair The lovely hills and redwood forest are just a fifteen minute drive away.

The apartment is very spacious and clean, the bed very comfortable and in an area walkable to dining and grocery shopping. A tall person might find the low ceilings a little claustrophobic but it didn't bother us. Communication with the host was very good. It met our needs and we would return.

Jeri was super friendly and helpful the entire stay. I booked this spot last minute for my dad who was coming into town and wanted a spot nearby we could also hang out at. This was a perfect little 1 BR in Oakland in a nice neighborhood. Parking was easy and the apartment had everything my dad needed. Loved this spot and will keep in mind for future family and friend visits!

Returned to this location after staying here about a year ago. The host is very attentive and communicates well. The unit is cozy but uncluttered. A very nice choice for two 60 -somethings visiting children in the area. The kitchen has an extraordinarily good set of knives and cookware. Will return again next chance we get.

My husband and I stayed here for one night following a Cal Performance event. We could not have been more pleased. The apartment is tucked away from the street. It is roomy, clean, quiet, and very comfortable. We hope to stay longer next time!

Location is terrific - - close to public transport, freeway entrance, Trader Joes, cafes, upscale food shops. Apartment is spacious, well-furnished, well-heated, and well-lit. Owner provides easy communication. Just one criticism, there ought to be a grab bar in shower for safety.

We were here for just one night, but have another booked in two weeks. This is a quiet, private, spotless and spacious apartment with a comfortable bed and good chairs to sit and read. One could easily spend weeks here as everything is available. The owner is kind and responsive and the price is fair. Many shops and restaurants nearby. Close to BART and bus service, maybe 10 to 15 minutes walk to College Ave.
