Great stay in a special enclave at Berkeley!
Stayed for a month and was impressed by the property, location, and support from the property manager. ~except for the situation with the parking situation being challenging at times as it is street parking I had a wonderful stay and would recommend the place to others.

Hidden gem
I believe the short title 'hidden gem' might capture the attention for those looking for a place to relax, hike, cycle and walk able to UC Berkeley and desirable neighborhood hotspots ie Market Hall & College Ave., to name a few. Kathy & Bill (owners) were always responsive if I had any questions. A positive and lovely month + staying in this Berkeley hidden gem.

Perfect location
Kathy and Bill were terrific hosts and truly made an effort to make my stay a great one. The location is perfect and the outdoor space is a wonderful extension to the home. This, coupled with a comfortable bed and GREAT water pressure make this a property a little jewel.

Great trip!
My mother and I stayed here for a month and we had a fantastic trip! Kathy and Bill were super responsive; the house was spotless with great appliances and nice outdoor spaces. Great neighborhood. We were walking distance to a charming grocery store and close to the theater and restaurants in Elmwood and Rockridge. There are a few bit of stairs to and in the house that those with mobility issues may have to figure out how to navigate

Berkeley Graduation stay
We wanted a place where we could host a few dinners for a large family group, outside, for graduation. This house was perfect! The patio and deck were lovely. The location is gorgeous, and the neighborhood has a lot of amenities. A really great house.

Perfect in every way
I stayed in this beautiful home for over a month and I can honestly say it was perfect in every way. The hosts are the best, the place is beautiful, the location quiet and peaceful but not too far from all you need. It's honestly just perfect. I can't recommend it enough!

Paradise in Berkeley
While, happily, the description of 40 Domingo was accurate, it can only begin to express what a paradise the apartment is: Elegant yet cozy, spotless and well-maintained, beautifully appointed kitchen and bathroom, luxurious linens and robes, mid-century modern furnishings that work perfectly with the art deco architecture. Kathy and Bill have thought of every detail and anticipated every need. They are always available though not in evidence unless you need them. And such lovely people. Plus the New York Times every morning! The outdoor spaces--three gorgeous terraces in all--feel like an extension of the indoor spaces. The landscaping is sublime. Great BBQ. The only problem with 40 Domingo for a visit to Berkeley is you'll never want to leave the apartment. That said, two great commercial areas are in walking distance--amazing bakeries and restaurants, shopping, movie theater, plus easy drives to the University, Rockridge, Berkeley Rep, Chez Panisse et al. We would recommend this property to everyone!

Great location in Berkeley waking distance to restaurants and shops. Urban yet quiet.
We loved the apartment and especially appreciated Kathy and Bill's approach. They are courteous and accessible. They made us feel welcome and it was very helpful to learn about their favorite spots in the neighborhood. We highly recommend the location as well as their management style for the property.

Amazing Home
This was by far the nicest home I have had the pleasure to stay at in Berkeley. I rent often for work and travel with my family. The owner greeted us at the door and walked through the house and amenities to make sure we were comfortable. We were treated to a bottle of wine, great fresh ground coffee and cream! This is a hidden gem, jump on it if you get the chance.

Fantastic place to stay in Berkeley
This is a beautiful property in a great location. It is charming inside and out. The owners are lovely and were very helpful. There are lots of great restaurants which you can walk to if you're not in heels. It was fun to relax and have dinner on the pretty patio as well. I would highly recommend this place. We hope to come back soon.

Home Away from Home
I stayed in the 2 bedroom flat for almost 4 months while waiting to move to another city. I was sorely tempted to just stay for good. The flat is beautiful and comfortable, roomy, and in a perfect area for walking to get groceries, coffee, walking trails, etc. I loved the architectural detail the hosts preserved for a classic Berkeley home. It is in a quiet area, which I appreciated. The hosts are wonderful people. I had everything I needed for a happy and relaxed stay. Thank you Kathy and Bill xo.

A Heavenly Haven
This is an oasis that was very hard to leave! I stayed in this lovely, light, warmy appointed place briefly but fell in love with the house, the spectacular location with walking distance to cafes, restaurants, bakeries, UC Berkeley, and parks. The hosts are warm and kind. The garden and patio are lined in lavender and lemon trees. Truly a wonderful get-away.

Lovely and great for entertaining.
This place is both private and relaxing but also perfect for entertaining. The large living space connected to the beautiful patio and garden was perfect for our family during an extended visit to my hometown. It was easy to have old friends stop by for dinner al fresco and the kitchen was fantastic. The second deck off the main bedroom was so lovely for quiet morning coffee as well. Thanks, Kathy and Bill for such a great place that feels like home. Can't wait to be back!

Quiet, Comfortable, Impeccable, Charming
We've stayed in two different units here, and we will be back again. It's located in a charming neighborhood near the Claremont Hotel, close to the bookstores and boutiques of College Avenue, but nestled in a quiet, secluded spot. It's a five-star guest experience -- impeccable rooms, luxurious bedding -- with all the little touches that help you to relax and unwind.

Great place. Great location.
This is a really unique place in Berkeley in a great location. We stayed for the Christmas week with our two kids. The flat has everything you could possibly need to feel at home and the owners (Kathy and Bill) outfitted it with a crib and toddler bed for us. They even had books and toys that were age appropriate. There are two outdoor spaces that are very well cared for and also outfitted as well as the interior so the place is really spacious when you take into account all the outside space. And there is a great park and playground at the school right behind the house as well. The bed upstairs is really comfortable and had the most amazing pillows we've ever slept on.
