West Oakland Charm 5br4ba AC WD

Nice modern apartment

Pros: Comfortable well-appointed apartment. Excellent communication and assistance from owner who helped us beyond our expectations. Cons: Nothing.

I booked a different hotel.

Pros: It’s private, at least. Cons: EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! Bad neighborhood, no front desk, no one else on the property with me at all, street parking only, front gate is unlocked and would be easy to hop over even with a lock. Only security measure was the lock on the door to my unit, which was a glass door. NOT SAFE for solo travelers, but frankly I wouldn’t want to stay here even with a group.

Exceptional
