The main building is great. Spacious, clean, kitchen is well equipped etc. The back ADU unit must have something wrong with the insulation. Moisture stays within the unit to the point that our clothes were wet feeling when we put them on. The bath towels didn’t even dry after being out a full day.

All in all, not the most horrible experience, but not the greatest either. Pros: The house is clean, updated, beds are comfy; at night its quiet. The property is near the freeways. The water heater functions well; and hot water availability is quick. Linens and towels were clean and plentiful. Internet was reliable. Cons: This part of West Oakland is not safe and not walkable. This property is owned by a corporate trust and managed by a cleaning company that also does property management. There was a strong smell that was worse when the heater was on, and the property management person gaslit me saying that it was “It’s also a little strange that your check-in was two days ago and only now you’re complaining about a smell”. They scheduled someone to clean the heater vents who confirmed the smell, and the cleaning helped. A different person who rented the unit also noted a strange smell so it’s not just me, my colleagues, and the HVAC guy.
