Alameda Studio w/ Patio: 3 Mi to Oakland Coliseum!

Great Stay in Alameda!

This was the second time we have stayed in this lovely cottage, located in a very nice residential neighborhood. It was immaculate, nicely decorated, and very functional. The location was quite convenient to uptown restaurants and coffee shops. The kitchen was well-equipped. Bob and Lu were great hosts, and we hope to return next year!

Amazing stay, location, and service

I stayed at this location for 3 nights for a friend's wedding and it was fantastic. The studio is very very well done, with a lot of effort put into the accommodations ... comfortable bed, high quality sheets, wide wood plank floors, a huge TV, high end tile in the shower, and tons of natural light (bring an eye mask if you want to sleep late in the summer). The location couldn't have been better for me, just a 10-15 minute walk to my friend's house, to the shops and restaurants on Park Street, or a walk down to the beach (which Id did each morning). It was very quiet and a great neighborhood. I had a silly mixup with the code while checking in (entirely my fault), but Bob was gracious and easy to get ahold of and we resolved it quickly. They are very thoughtful hosts, with clear signage, notes and labels throughout the house, a book of instructions, and a basket full of snacks. As a former short term rental host myself, I really appreciated all that. Would definitely stay there again!

Wonderful stay

My parents here stayed while in town to visit the grandkids. This is their review: My husband and I enjoyed our stay in this spacious studio cottage while visiting the area. It was lovely, modern, comfortable and quite clean. Located in a charming upscale neighborhood, we could easily walk the few blocks to restaurants in downtown Alameda. Kudos to our congenial host. We would be quite happy to stay here again.

Very nice place

Overall a very nice place to stay. Quiet, very nice unit with great finishes and construction and everything worked well. For those that like to sleep in, the place is very bright due to skylights, FYI. We did, however, encounter an ant infestation on our food. While ants are common in Alameda, we had to throw out some food and the ants remained and we couldn’t use the kitchen for breakfast (coffee maker also had ants) which is one of the reasons we stay at such places rather than hotels. Owner came over and cleaned up and applied ant bait to spots but ants remained. Disappointing that beyond the ant treatment of the unit there was no offer to compensate us for the lost food or inconvenience. FYI, ants are common in Alameda especially when entering the rainy season so we were not surprised, but it was a large infestation and sorta spoiled the use of the kitchen for us. I suspect it won’t be much of an issue in other times of the year.
