Great place!

I recommend this place highly! It's really clean, well kept, and spacious - and the proximity to BART can't be beat. The host was super responsive, clear, and available, but not overbearing. Best part: the kitchen is properly stocked with equipment. The host has thoughtfully included anything you might actually need to cook, not just a prefunctory dull knife you often find at short term rentals. Great stay.

Great location for a stay in the Berkeley area. Very close to the North Berkeley BART stop and convenient for a car with an assigned parking space. The neighborhood is very tranquil, near the park and within walking distance of many Berkeley spots. The residence is well appointed. With everything you need for a great stay.

Old school Berkeley at its best

We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is great and very close to bart. It’s walkable to Gilman and a little farther is Shattuck and Solano. Scott is a very thoughtful host, and snacks and a bottle of wine greeted us. There’s a binder with tons of info if you don’t know the area very well. Our chats with Michael and Bella were a highlight of our trip. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect home for our Berkeley vacation!

We planned a 2 week vacation at Scott’s VRBO, because it fit all our needs: great, safe location near our son’s work, a dedicated off-street parking space, a full kitchen with all appliances and cookware needed to bake a birthday cake and fix a Thanksgiving dinner, dining table to seat four adults, full living room plus a desk/table for our family to gather and play games, washer and dryer, and great ratings from prior guests. This place was wonderful, and Scott was a very kind, helpful, and thoughtful host. He had suggestion lists, guide books, and maps for anything you'd like to do. The next door neighbor is also friendly and has great recommendations too. The house was spotlessly clean, the bed was very comfortable, the neighborhood had fun eateries and shops within 1/2 mile, and we had everything we needed for a great stay. We would love to come again!

Great place for a car free trip

The place was very good for what we wanted. We liked being so close to the BART and walking distance to shops and restaurants on San Pablo and Shattuck. There was some construction noise due to the adjacent bike trail expansion, but not before 7 am, and not every day. We appreciated the excellent food and travel tips from our neighbor Mike as well.

Great location - Super clean - Excellent communication

This is a great little place that is perfectly located. Incredibly clean. It has that Berkeley charm and feel, while really being well maintained and again, super clean. It's a bit tricky to find because the neighbors street address is much more prominent. But Scott was a very gracious host and allowed us to leave our bags on site before the official check in time. Couldn't find a nicer guy.

Great place!

We stayed at the apartment for four weeks, while visiting UC Berkeley, and it was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was extremely well equipped, which made cooking a pleasure. Getting to and from campus was quite easy on public bus or by walking. Scott was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay, and the neighbors were friendly and full of good suggestions for places to eat and things to do. Highly recommended!

Everything you need in a great location

The house had the perfect amount of space to serve as a home base while exploring the East Bay and surrounding areas. The proximity to the subway, nearby parks, and campus cannot be beat. Everything we needed was provided, including a kitchen with all necessary dishes and utensils, towels and linens, fast wifi, and a smart Roku tv. The owner was very polite as was his family who lived next door, and they were ready with great recommendations for nearby restaurants and attractions. Highly recommended!
