Private Studio in Oakland | Central & Gated

This studio had everything I needed, and I was very comfortable during my stay. Cute neighborhood that felt safe and family-friendly. Clean studio with a great kitchen and all amenities.

I enjoyed my stay, and the peaceful walks.

I had an excellent experience with Roger as a host however the space was not what I was expecting based on the photos & description & I had to bail within thirty minutes of arriving at the location. I am extremely grateful to Roger for being available to help me with my check in & take a phone call from me late at night when I arrived & immediately realized I couldn't stay there. I wish I had read more reviews since there are some folks in the past who had similar experiences to mine. I don't book Airbnbs if the host isn't on site & I wasn't aware that Roger lives in SoCal. I booked Roger's studio based on the title ("newly renovated studio") & the photos & what I found when I arrived didn't match my expectations. I felt like I was in a seedy cheap motel that had been heavily used & not maintained enough to keep up with the usage. The artificial air freshener smell was so intense I could barely breathe and there were bugs in the bathroom sink. So grateful to Airbnb for the refund.

he's so friendly and helpful for everything!
