This is a really nice apartment in a sweet spot next to a creek and a mini urban forest. The apartment was spotless and beautifully appointed, plenty roomy for 2. It is on a steep hillside, which my elderly mother needed to negotiate slowly. Great kitchen & bathroom. Very comfortable beds. I enjoyed relaxing in the living room and soaking in the tree-filled surroundings, as well as people-watching out the front -- no doubt graduation time is busier than most in the area! I walked all over Berkeley from this spot: to campus, to College Ave., to Claremont, etc. Nice owner who helped upon arrival with my inability to open the lock. Renters should know that although 'their' parking is on the left they can more easily enter the apartment from the right.

My wife and I rented Jodey's home to be in Berkeley for our daughter's graduation from UC law school. It is just a few blocks from campus in a nice neighborhood; we enjoyed walking around and to dining. The home was spotless, well furnished and supplied. A very comfortable and pleasant place to stay, we were there 5 days in May, 2013. The backyard patio is especially pleasant, the whole apartment was very nice.

Christmas Holiday

Highly recommend this property. Easy location in Berkeley area; off-street parking for 2 vehicles. New kitchen with ample counter space for cooking. Owner even added extra cookware items, as we planned to prepare Christmas Dinner during our visit. Owner provides excellent details re local shopping, dining, activities, bus/BART/airport access. All facilities worked well, plenty of hot water -- there were 4 of us staying, plus my daughter slept over on the sofa for Christmas eve and Christmas night. Shower & bath are updated, and very nice. Covered deck which was great, as it rained our entire visit, but we were able to sit out on the deck and be dry during light rain and no wind. Listing acurately shows entire property. The only concern to be aware of is that the beds are very low, and anyone with a disability or traveling with elderly parents, who may not be physically fit, may find the bed height difficult for getting up. The beds worked fine for us, but would not have been suitable for my mid-80 year old in-laws who sometimes travel with us. Overall, this is a wonderful property, good price, accommodating owner who answered all questions and was very helpful. I do not hesitate to recommend this property for a stay in the Berkeley area.

I highly recommend this beautiful apartment without hesitation. You are welcomed immediately the key opens the door. It is fully equipped, the attention to detail providing the guest with stress free luxury living is second to none. We ate in Henry's Pub and Freehouse Berkeley - very good. We visited the Arboretum which is glorious and went to the cinema. The photo's and listing descriptions were accurate, everwhere looked immaculate. Booking could not have been easier. Much of our time was spent sitting out on the deck reading, absortbing the tranquillity and privacy. If I could give our stay more than 5 stars I most certainly would.

We lost our home to a fire on the 18th of October and were relieved to have this place to live in until we found larger quarters. If we didn't have a 3 year old, we would have been content to stay here. Such peace! Such ease! I would recommend this for anyone. It is very convenient and pleasant and full of light. Furnishings are everything one would need for a brief or prolonged stay. The owner was extremely gracious and helpful in every way. All Berkeley is easily accessible from this location. I would be happy to recommend this to any member of my family or any friend traveling through or planning a stay in Berkeley!
