We really enjoyed our stay here. It was clean. The beds are comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked. The main room is big and comfortable. The neighborhood felt safe. The front patio could use some outdoor furniture but is beautiful. The fountain is a fun, unique feature.
One thing I didn't see in the listing or anyone else's comments is how accessible this unit is. Absolutely, zero steps from parking in the driveway to getting inside and everything is on one floor. This was especially helpful for my elderly mother and is something that really needs to be noted as that's pretty rare in Berkeley.
Again, overall we loved this place and recommend it.
Communication is basically the reason I didn't rate this place top of the scale. I got less than halfway into explaining that when VRBO cut me off, so trying to keep this abbreviated...
Was told would get access codes and info 72 hour ahead, came about 48 ahead which caused me a day of worry. Instructions claimed there was cable, there wasn't. No network TV. Called to ask about that, and got an answering service who claimed owner would call us back. Never heard anything back. Shower curtain in the main bathroom was missing. Called to report that. Answering service asked for pictures, said they'd send an email address to send to. Never got an email address.
Quick complaints, No top sheets, listing says place to yourself but there's people in a lower unit.
Again, overall very happy, recommend highly
