Spacious, clean, uncluttered upper unit. Everything (stove, shower, microwave, etc.) was simple to operate and worked well. Near BART, Rockridge, and a short bus to Cal campus. One hiccup in our four days. I texted Chris and he called immediately and walked me through steps to resolution. A plus.

Great location. Felt very safe. Walkable. Our host was easy to communicate with and very welcoming. Some upgrades needed - new towels, PILLOWS and more than 4 glasses. Appreciated all of the framed memos around the house. We obviously don't take a vacation to watch TV - but an explanation of how to make the darn thing work would be great. Would we stay again. Sure, but we would bring our own pillows, towels and glassware.

The property was as depicted in the photos. It was an excellent place for our adult daughter living in the area to join us. Our pooch, Rocco, was thrilled to be able to join us too!Quick walk to Safeway, coffee shops and restaurants. Short drive to the many museums and parks. Chris was responsive and welcomed suggestions.

Nice clean upstairs flat in Rockridge

We really enjoyed our stay here, and since our main purpose was to visit our son and attend the Big Game, we also appreciated being right next to the bus stop where we could hop on for a short ride up College to Memorial stadium. Also nice to be really close to all of the great restaurants on College. Chris was a great communicator and we had no problems with anything during our stay

Walkable and welcoming

We enjoyed our stay! The location is great - there are many great restaurants, coffee shops, and stores within easy walking distance. Free street parking can be found nearby but keep in mind the occasional street cleaning day. The neighborhood was also nice to walk around during the day. The building was great and the accommodation comfortable. If you have the windows open expect some street noise which you'd expect from the area.

Very close to 5 stars!

House was very cute and in an awesome area. Everything was convenient to get to! Some feedback on how this could be a 5 star: please provide better tv cable options or smart tv, windows had cracks in them, little ants were present and the smoke detector was way to sensitive with there being 0 smoke and nothing on the stovetop. Overall we had a great time, very cozy and spacious!

Big, Comfortable Rockridge Neighborhood Home

My son and I loved staying at the Rockridge home, and really felt part of the neighborhood. The home is spacious, we loved being able to spread out. It has nice wood floors and multiple living spaces, comfortable beds, and a full size kitchen with everything we needed. I liked being able to look out west to the hillsides from the kitchen and my bedroom. The shower was strong and warm. Sunshine filled every room. While Claremont is busier during the day, it was quiet after 9 pm at night when the neighborhood went to sleep. Lots of free and easy street parking right out front. And walkable to grocery and coffee shops, with bonus of being just 5 minutes down the road from the Panoramic trailhead for our morning hikes. The owner Chris is kind and friendly and we highly recommend his home to future guests.

Worked well for us

My sister and I stayed at this property for three weeks. The size of our second floor space was excellent and the host was very responsive. We had no problems with our stay of any kind and parked at a nearby street in this nice neighborhood. I wish there had been more lighting in the front two rooms and perhaps a few more comfortable chairs in those rooms as well.

Rockin’ Good Time in Rockridge

We really enjoyed staying at Chris’s house in Rockridge. The proximity to Berkeley and the BART station was ideal. We liked the layout of the house and the way Chris communicated with us so promptly on several occasions. We do think the house could use a few things: 1. Floor lamps by the couches so guests can read 2. A few more casual chairs and seating for six in the lovely breakfast nook 3. An upgrade for the towels All in all it was a very good experience!
