Quaint decor but not clean. Shoddy structure, a garage makeover poorly done. No sink for cleaning what small amount of dishes were there. Temp in room was 56 degrees on arrival. Only one space heater ran 8 hours to get up to 60 degrees. Lot of floor level changes- not recommended for disabled or elderly.

Comfortable stay in a beautiful section of Berkeley. Everything as described in listing. Even though the weather was very cold and wet the space was comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

Disliked: Amenities
Beautiful Area and great communication. But frankly the space is very cluttery and dusty like an antique store. Many items in the space are clearly just being stored there (it's attached to a large house) and not design elements for the guest, for either appearance or convenience. There is a large urn half filled with water which I never could figure out was supposed to be my drinking water. When I looked for coffee I found a nearly empty can of Folgers in the 2nd or 3rd drawer down below the coffee maker. There are hand written signs all over the space about what to do and not do including 'don't plug in more than 3 things into outlets to avoid a power outage'. There is one wall heater than somewhat heats the space, and a radiator that you can roll out, but there's no place to plug it in. I'm actually surprised if not skeptical that most of the reviews are positive. I've never left a negative review on a place. I usually only review if it's positive. There's so much potential with this space. It's a shame the owners are doing only the minimum toward making it an outstanding experience for the price being asked.

Excellent! Great for a quick overnight!
This space is a converted garage unit that feels quite private despite being attached to the house (doors are locked in between the home and the rental space). We really enjoyed our stay. We especially loved the quiet and the comfortable sleeping arrangements. We felt safe and appreciated the cleanliness.
