This petite 1-bedroom is one of 5 units in a converted 1920s home. It comes with a completely segregated entrance and it has its own kitchen and bathroom; thus, only the entry way is shared with the tenants in the other units. The tenants are ALL long term; they have been in the property for an average of 9 years. They are quite and wonderful folks. They are hardworking and barely home.

The space
Fruitvale is the Latino neighborhood of Oakland. Only a few walking steps from studio, nearing intersections of Fruitvale at Foothill Blvd and/or Fruitvale at International there is a countless number of Salvadoran, Mexican and Guatemalan restaurants and bakeries. They are all very humble and down-to-earth establishments. The food is excellent, but the ambiance is tailored to working class Latinos; if that fits your standards, you’ll have a very pleasant experience. If you are more into trendy places, Downtown Oakland will suit you best

Other things to note
Our places come equipped with EVERTHING any guests may need. We lack no details since we ourselves are avid travelers, so, we know what is required for all types of guests.

We have the best quality linen, towels, all kitchen utensils, and you will not be disappointed.

The only problem is that it's awesome, and always booked, so hard to stay again on my visit next month as there is no availability." - "The studio apartment is a cozy & comfortable base for Bay Area visitors. Eli & Tal consummate hosts - from Eli’s warm welcome & orientation, help with our luggage & homemade apple cobbler & wine. Highly recommended!" - "This property is beautifully situated in North Berkeley, close to everything you might want in terms of wonderful parks, views, friendly neighborhood. It is also close to what people in Berkeley refer to as the Gourmet Ghetto, lots of good eating places. The actual apt is tastefully decorated and fully equipped with everything you might need.

This property has a view that scans – starting from the north, Mt. Tamalpais, Golden Gate Bridge, Bay Bridge, Port of Oakland, Oakland skyline, San Francisco Skyline, Alameda Island, the Bay and its estuaries; south are the western hills that separate the Bay from the Pacific. You are looking across at an amazing panorama, and everything near you is amidst trees and greenery (ergo, OAKland!)

Do you enjoy a fireplace on cool days? The living room has a beautiful Regency gas insert in front of the sofa, operated by wall-mounted remote control.

Don’t want to climb stairs to get to your rental? The Bay Area is a hilly area, therefore some rentals require climbing many step to access the rental. But not this rental! At this rental, although your magnificent view is elevated (2nd floor), you enter the rental from the street level. To enter “Oasis”, you walk from the street-side sidewalk, along a level walkway, up one small step to a stoop, then up a small step into the front door.

This is the main house with no noise over your head. Entry is from the street. The owners live downstairs which is “basement” level. We are quiet reclusive 70-ish folk who value our autonomy and quiet just as we respect yours. But at the same time, we are friendly and helpful. We take our responsibility as your hosts very seriously and will do all we can to make sure that you’re comfortable and have what you need.

The other end connects to the kitchen and has a tall, large metal bistro dining table with 4 bar-height cushioned chairs from which to enjoy the view. A grill is on the deck (propane provided).The balconies are connected by a straight portion where there is additional seating.

Do you like to cook at home? The kitchen is fully furnished with cookware, utensils, place settings and basic condiments. Kitchen has: Wedgewood stove, microwave, Cuisinart drip maker with re-usable filter, toaster, and blender.
Can you live without an automatic dishwasher? As an interior design choice, we kept the vintage 1949 kitchen with the beautiful gas standing pilot Wedgewood stove. Our cabinets are original and of a depth that is slightly too narrow to accommodate a dishwasher.

Do you want a full-size clothes washer and dryer -- LG large capacity washer and dryer. with laundry detergent and softener provided.

Do you like to read? A small collection of books includes travel books (lots on Northern California), novels, and books related to philosophy, political science, and art. Take a day off and go on an intellectual exploration through an eclectic collection.

Do you enjoy the intimacy of overlooking a verdant garden? The expansive back deck overlooks a lush garden replete with – to name a few of the plants – a majestic poplar tree (condo to many squirrels and birds – and those Anna Humming birds put on quite a show!), calla lilies in the winter, a robust juniper tree with juniper berries, plum trees, apple tree, fig tree, bird of paradise, spider plants .

Are you allergic to dogs or cats? Animals are never allowed in the rental.

Parking is un-metered no-restrictions street parking that is generally plentiful. Guests are usually able to park in front of the rental.

- "We had a great stay at this home in Berkeley. We used it as our hub to visit San Francisco. The BART station is an easy walk from the home and parking was easy too. Nancy was a great host and I would highly recommend this home! ☺️" - "Perfect for our 10 day stay, as the apartment is in a private home in a quiet residential neighborhood. The owner has done a nice job blending lush outdoor plantings with good security, and you enter the apartment through a locked gate. On street parking was plentiful, but limited to 2 hours during the day - not a big deal since we were out and about most of the time. Inside, we were met with a well kept and appointed apartment and thoughtful welcome gifts: a bottle of wine and chocolates. Had a little trouble with the oven, but the owner lives upstairs and came to the rescue - with cheese and crackers in hand!"

- "This is perfect! Location, apartment, everything Betty is So very welcoming. Off street parking. Could not ask for a better experience. Highly recommend." - "One of the best pluses of this property is off street parking." - "Nice place in Alameda, very good location, easy to go to San Francisco. Friendly host. Highly recomend" - "As others have said, this is a great property. It's located in a quiet, safe neighborhood and has a parking space. Alameda is a central location from which you can access all parts of the east bay. With the full kitchen you can prepare your own meals. One of the best aspects for me was that we lacked for nothing. I had forgotten to bring my flashlight. Bingo! there was a flashlight in the closet. Will make this my go-to place in the future."
