Start your mornings with a fresh cup of coffee as sunlight filters through the trees. The space is equipped for light cooking, featuring a coffee maker, hot water kettle, microwave, induction burner, and mini fridge—perfect for whipping up something cozy. After a long day, sink into the queen-sized bed with a plush memory foam topper for a restful night’s sleep.

The bathroom is stocked with essentials, including soap and a hairdryer, while the spacious walk-in closet provides plenty of room to stay organized.
But the true magic of this home lies beyond its walls. Step outside and meander through a vibrant shared garden filled with fragrant herbs, colorful blooms, and fruit trees bursting with tangerines, lemons, limes, oranges, figs, and loquats. Follow the winding paths to discover a hidden bench with breathtaking views of the ravine and creek below—the perfect spot for quiet reflection or a moment of serenity.

Summary: My girlfriend and I loved the backyard, and the room was very cozy! Great for going out and visiting the beautiful Bay Area.
Mark R. May 1, 2024 12:09:54 PM
Summary: Marlene's rental provided a very quiet peaceful atmosphere. I was able to work all day and stroll in her gorgeous garden when I needed a moment of reflection. The location provides easy access to highway 580. Marlene was nice enough to show me her around her garden oasis which provided a nice personal touch. I would definitely stay here again.
Diana L. May 18, 2021 11:00:19 AM
Summary: The hostess was very charming and accommodating. Backyard is very peaceful and lovely. She even let me heat my Zachary’s pizza in her kitchen.
mida s. Mar 26, 2020 11:16:56 AM
Summary: Very nice property, exactly as described and pictured. Location was perfect for us while visiting our daughter in Oakland. Marlene is a great host and check in was easy. Would highly recommend.
Jason A. Mar 3, 2020 04:13:47 AM
Summary: Nice and quiet location. Space as advertised. Owner was great in getting an iron to use when I asked about one.
Dec 21, 2019 11:08:54 PM
Summary: The apartment was charming and well kept. I did find some amenities lacking. There really should be a chest of drawers in the bedroom to put suitcase cloths items. Also I would have liked a TV. In addition, for anyone who might be handicapped (I have had a hip replacement, and recent hernia surgery), stepping into the bathtub was precarious. I would have put in a walk in shower.
TERI L. Oct 8, 2019 12:12:38 PM
Summary: We really enjoyed staying here. The garden is beautiful. The apartment was well furnished. Close to Mills college. Easy to get around Oakland.
John P. Mar 9, 2019 02:47:45 AM
Summary: A comfortable and quiet apartment with separate and secure entry. Clean and well equipped, it is a place one could stay for quite a while, with a little planning and shopping. The google maps directions were not accurate at all though. Thank goodness we persisted and are experienced travelers. We had to look for a while to find it. We chose it mostly for the reasonable cost and location. Close to the Oakland airport and where had business and friends, but still able to access San Francisco easily. I would stay here again. We never did meet the owner, as we arrived late and left early on both days, but the notes she left us were clear enough.
Lynn G. Dec 11, 2018 12:32:49 PM
Summary: Very clean and private, comfortable. As others mentioned there is no iron or television. Very convenient location, would recommend
Jeffrey K. Nov 1, 2018 06:13:08 AM
Summary: The property was gorgeous, and quiet! Marlene was very accommodating. Close to the highway and a filling station. Convenient location outside of SF. Hard to describe all of the subtle aromas, the plants, and the overall environment. Very relaxing. I will definitely be back on my next trip.
