The space
This home is a duplex with a shared front entrance. Once inside, you’ll find a second door to the right that leads to your private apartment. The upstairs apartment, which shares the entryway is also an Airbnb.

Guest access
The entire private 1st floor is yours to enjoy. Please make yourself at home.

Other things to note
*This is a completely newly renovated unit but it is still in a 1906 house so it has the quirks and creaks of an older, albeit charming, house.

We kindly ask that you help keep little ones from running indoors, as the sound can be loud for our upstairs guests. The back garden is a great spot for play instead. Thank you so much for your consideration!

*The king bedroom has a walkway outside the windows and sometimes you will hear the neighbor walking by, but it's usually quiet.

Where you’ll be

Oakland
Hip-hop history, a bayfront shoreline, and a working waterfront give this East Bay city a grounded, creative identity by the water.

From the host

Our neighborhood main street - literally around the corner - has 20 restaurants, 8 coffee shops, 9 artisan shops, and 3 bookstores, all in a 10-block radius. Circa 1890 Fentons Creamery made a cameo in Pixar’s Up, while indie films screen at the Piedmont Theatre.
