We enjoyed the space and privacy, and proximity to Trestle Glen and Piedmont. Would have appreciated more attention to cleaning, especially the floors and cobwebs. The loose railing on the stairs needs to be addressed.

Place is dirty and not fixed up for arrival. Dishes in the sink and in the dishwasher, generally is neglected and hasn’t had a good clean in some time. The yard is also messy and unkempt. Location excellent and host communicated really well.

The place was perfect for 2 people. The only thing that I thought was different was that the bathroom was upstairs. I only say that because in the middle of the night I get lazy and want the bathroom at arms reach. We did not have time to enjoy the backyard even thought the second day was absolutely beautiful spring like day. Enjoyed the stay very much.

Needs some improvements but overall good place
When arriving the host brother met us and was very kind. The biggest issue is what many complained about, steep and narrow stairs to the room and the multilevel of the outside isn’t pet friendly as there is no grass areas and very steep . The front door has quite a gap so ants etc can get in and cold air. The stairs to the bathroom definitely need a more secure railing and better lighting. There is someone above the room as a rental and they were very noisy walking back and forth (big dog that barked and cried a lot). There is a window that has no blind so I had to block it with pillows because (a) privacy and (b) light coming in so you can sleep. The subdivision is nice. Kitchen needs more normal size bowls and silverware (they were very small or huge ones for like noodles and had holes for chopsticks). No hand towel or washcloths provided . Water pressure for sink in kitchen and bathroom shower is awful and took a long time to get hot water. Bathroom sink handles are loose and definitely installed incorrectly, needs to be fixed for sure. Tried to use the washer and dryer provided and unfortunately the dryer kept turning off, I was able to YouTube to fix thankfully. Need bins to keep recycle etc to carry to big bins. Outlets on the right side of couch don’t work. A lot of junk laying around outside area. I believe host will fix issues. Quiet area and overall good place with some things to fix.

With a little work this could be a 5-star property
This apartment is located in a very safe and beautiful historic Oakland neighborhood that has easy access to the freeway while being very quiet and peaceful. The apartment is spacious and the owner, Vin, is very friendly. I want to mention a few items that are preventing me from rating this a 5-star property. 1) Upon our arrival we only received one bath towel for the two of us and received no wash cloths or hand towels. (Vin was quick to remedy the lack of towels, but even so, he only had one wash cloth available.) 2) The bathroom faucet handles were wildly askew, pointing at 2pm and 1pm, when they should be at 9pm and 3pm. The hand towel rack on the wall wobbled and there was only one towel rack to hang both bath towels. A second towel rack would allow the bath towels to dry more quickly. 3) Getting to the apartment required navigating 13 exterior, steep and narrow steps down to the basement apartment, then 1 step up. A hand rail runs along the steps but is impeded by a very thick vine, so this is a safety issue. Because of the steps, this apartment is best suited for someone with a backpack rather than roller bags. 4) The handrail for the dozen interior steps up to the bathroom is very wobbly and does not continue to the top step. This is a safety issue. 5) The light switch for the interior steps to the bathroom is located at the top of the stairs, and because the stairs are made of dark wood, without some way to light the stairs at night, this is also a safety concern.

Lovely apartment in Oakland Hills
We had issues with check in instructions and with the apartment not being cleaned before our arrival but the friendly host responded rapidly and everything was resolved quickly. The apartment is a cute, split level with the bathroom and closet on the second floor. It has everything you need for a great visit, including a beautiful outdoor space that we didn't get to use due to the rain. We would stay here again.

Perfect for a couple in a quiet neighborhood on a cul de sac. Close to Lakeshore stores i.e. Trader Joe’s, dining, and shops. Reserved parking spot on owner’s driveway and king size bed make this VRBO a repeat for us.

Beautiful Stay. Amazing host.
This is a truly gorgeous and charming place. It is in a safe and beautiful neighborhood. The clean, open-concept apartment is lovely and inviting. The bed and leather sofa are very comfortable, and we like the big TV screen (lots of movies and shows to watch). The bathroom is upstairs and has heating for cold winter days. The kitchen is well-equipped for daily cooking. Parking is accessible in front of the property. Vin was a wonderful host. He was always available to assist us and easy to talk to. Thank you very much for your hospitality, Vin, and thank you for the delicious BBQ salmon! We had a lovely time here and hope to return.

Lovely stay in Oakland
My visit to the rental in Oakland was just perfect. The place was clean and inviting and felt so comfortable . It was located in a beautiful quiet neighborhood but still really close to all the city sites and places to go . Loved the computer desk and view from the back as well as access to the patio. Hosts very accommodating and friendly. I would definitely recommend this vacation rental and rate it a 5

Picturesque view!
We rented the studio apartment for a month and it was a very comfortable place to stay. The apartment was spacious for the size, furniture was comfortable, plenty of towels, a large TV and a very well equipped full size kitchen. The neighborhood was exceptionally beautiful to drive through as you winded up the mountain to Vin's home. The backyard was beautiful with it's multi-level terraces with plenty of places to sit and enjoy the unbelievable view along with all the birds and squirrels. The owner could not have been more accommodating and was just the right amount of friendly! I look forward to staying at this location in the future.

Perfekte Wohnung!!!
Die Wohnung für 2 Personen war optimal. Es hat an nichts gefehlt. Toilettenpapier, Müllsäcke, Spülmittel, Waschmittel, Kaffee, Gewürze sowie Schampoo war alles da. Wir waren rundum zufrieden. Der Garten ist ein Traum, man geht mehrere Etagen runter und auf jeder ebene ist etwas zu endecken, leider noch nicht ganz fertig, aber man sieht dass da viel Arbeit steckt. Die Wohnung würde ich auf jedenfall weiterempfehlen. Vielen Dank an den Gastgeber.
