Bright, clean apartments. Only complaint is the lack of lamps, and strong odor from cleaning products. Everything else was perfect for us.

Nice home in a rough location
This home was well supplied & clean (could use lamps, suitcase rack). Great home in really really rough area. Every Uber advised against going out after dark, carrying backpacks or bags. This home in any other location would have been a 5 star. The listing suggested an up and coming "hip" area of Oakland. We didn't speak with anyone who thought that and it did not feel like it an area being gentrified. We almost asked to move but decided to stay and just shut ourselves in since we would only be there at night to sleep. Did not feel safe at all. In terms of "location" I do not feel the advertising was accurate. Our group was two men and one woman - professionals. Not people easily "scared". House was great. Location not so much
