Comfy Martinez Apt w/Full Kitchen + Laundry
Sarah was so friendly, responsive, accommodating, and proactive. The location was quiet and peaceful. Close to everything you may need including a few big box stores. Close to amusement parks and beaches and big cities. The instructions left were able to help us make the rental way more homely. We enjoyed our time there.

Eclectic Luxury room
Robertoās place was excellent! Everything from the small details of decor to the relaxing space. Great outdoor balcony and excellent location. We canāt wait to stay again.

Quiet Elmwood duplex- close to UC
This is a great place to stay, full stop. It can be very hard to find a centrally located, ultra-quiet, comfortable and safe place that is also walkable to campus in Berkeley. I was able to do focused research here during the day and at night. Easy stroll down to the Elmwood cafes and restaurants or up past Monkey Island Park to Claremont Canyon -- all through beautiful Berkeley neighborhoods. Living space is very cozy with views out to the towering redwoods in the yard. Off-street parking spot. Looks exactly as depicted in the pictures. Robert was responsive and available if there were any issues, but there weren't any.

Modern Living Steps From Downtown
Very clean, welcoming place. Alexanderās apartment was very comfortable for 3 adults, with well equipped kitchen and bathroom. Alexander answered my questions super promptly, he is a great host. We highly recommend his place.

Beautiful 1 bdrm Apt with Ocean Views and Hot Tub
I loved Albina's place. It was so perfect for what we were looking for. It was cute, easy to find, easy parking and just so lovely. The highlight was the view. The bedroom window looked out to the city and the ocean. We never even turned the TV on since the view from the bed was just spectacular. We literally just watched the ocean and boats going by as the sunset before our eyes. The moon then came out and we went to bed just staring out at the sky. I hope to be able to stay here again. It was such a magical retreat.

Floating condo 'A' on Sausalito's Richardson Bay.
We had a great stay. Harold is a wonderful host.

Safe, Walkable, Private Garden Apartment
Lovely ,quiet space. Very comfortable and nice living area with lots of outside light in the family room with a commanding view of the Bay. Great grocery store in walking distance. Janet was a wonderful host and if you need anything she is there to help. Would stay there again in a minute!

Modern 3Br 2Ba New Home, Super Convenient
We came in town for a wedding in Berkeley and were so fortunate to find Jason's place as there was nothing available near the venue. It was only for an overnight stay for five people and a dog and it was absolutely perfect. Check in was after 4:00 p.m. yet the wedding started at 5:00. We asked Jason if we could arrive a little early to get ready and he responded quickly with a yes. That was a definitely life saver! His place was clean, spacious, and even had a backyard and a garage space for the car. We would definitely recommend Jason's place!

Your Walnut Creek Luxury Oasis Awaits
My husband and I enjoyed three nights in Walnut Creek. The unit was spacious and comfortable. Close to everything and very quiet. Easy parking and great instructions. I would definitely stay again!

Claremont View
The location and space was perfect for our needs! Clean, and larger than we expected from the photos. We especially enjoyed the hot tub/gazebo and the balcony.

Grand 1868 Victorian, Family-Friendly w/ Hot Tub
This property and experience is a gem! The location is gorgeous and central, the space is homey yet elegant and spacious and the hosts are lovely and responsive. A very well appointed and relaxing stay in the heart of the city. I very much look forward to returning.

Cozy Luxe N Oakland Garden Hideaway with Hot Tub
We absolutely loved everything about Eurydice's space. So elegant in its simplicity, and clearly prioritizing coziness and livability. She's thought of so many touches that made it all the more welcoming: extra throws and blankets, a fan and heater in the closet in case you need a temperature adjustment, a night light in the bathroom, super comfy seating and bed. All this set in a gorgeous garden that's very convenient to public transportation and very walkable to boot. On top of all that, Eurydice was a great host: very responsive, warm, and welcoming, even though I never ran into her while we were there. This place really felt like home away from home, and the most difficult part was getting myself to leave! :)

Beautiful Cottage, hot tub, in great neighborhood
This was a gem of an airbnb! The space is beautifully put together, very clean and comfortable - I almost didn't want to leave it! The location can't be beat - just steps away from Castro and a short walk over to Dolores Park/mission. Cory was extremely pleasant to communicate with, super helpful and eager to be a resource, and very proactive in addressing a next door neighbor's construction mess. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to any future guests!

Downtown Oakland Delight
I had a truly lovely and seamless stay at this Airbnb. My family and I stayed here for 8 nights while celebrating my graduation from UC Berkeley, and it was the perfect home base. The check-in process was smooth and convenient, everything was handled through an app that also gave us access to the buildingās many amenities. The apartment itself was spotless and had clearly been cleaned right before our arrival. I barely had to contact the host because everything was so well-prepared, but when I did, she was responsive, kind, and understanding. The location is ideal, right in the heart of downtown Oakland. It's just a short walk to the BART station, making it easy to get anywhere in the Bay Area, and the AC Transit bus stop is only two streets away. Being in the city center also made us feel safe and connected to everything we needed. If you're looking for a convenient, clean, and comfortable place to stay in Oakland, I highly recommend this Airbnb!

Rustic Grotto near Mills College
We had such an amazing time at this place. Itās a little small (so ask how tall the ceilings are) and there are lots of little steps so know that. Those two things were okay with us! The place is so beautifully set up! We felt right at home. And the garden is magical. Itās also very close to most anything in Oakland so great location. Also the host is so kind and so responsive. This is a great place to stay!

Oaktown Hilltop Hideaway in Redwood Heights
Ronald has a great spot! I stayed briefly while travel nursing in the bay and this place was a dream! Plenty of space, laundry in unit, and extremely clean! Location is also extremely convenient whether youāre going into sf, downtown Oakland or Walnut Creek. Definitely recommend and will be staying again!

Serene Stay with Modern Comforts
Lori was a great host - super communicative, and thoughtful. The location of this place was perfect for us and Lori provided helpful recommendations (we loved the Ultimate Coffee et al. coffee shop in the neighbourhood). The apartment was cozy, clean, and stocked with extra supplies. The chocolate and coffee pods were a nice touch to our stay. Highly recommend this host and location.

Hills Hideaway - Steps from Redwood Forest
Very clean, very quiet. Did feel like one was at the edge of a forest. Comfortable. Good wifi.

Brand new unit Heart of Alameda
Great clean and modern place. Excellent location and communication, entry, etc. There is quite a bit of street noise so ear plugs are a must, but it might not bother most people. I'm very sensitive.

GrandLake|Sunny,Spacious UpstairsApt,Gated Parking
A beautiful, sunny, quiet and spacious unit! Judi has done a great job of showing exactly what the unit looks like in her pictures! What you see is what you actually get! The window lined kitchen and sunroom with huge panoramic views were my favorites! This is the perfect spot for a month-to-month tenant such as a traveling medical professional! There are so many spots throughout the unit for storage!
