I rented this guest cottage for my elderly Dad (we live nearby but have no space for him to stay). It is spacious (feels even larger due to high, vaulted ceilings and skylights (do bring an eye pillow if you want to sleep in), has a large and super well equipped kitchen, and is really comfortable with both inside and (semi-private) outside seating. My Dad would enthusiastically stay here again and enjoyed meeting the owners very much who were kind to show him how to operate the heat and coffee maker.

My parents here stayed while in town to visit the grandkids. This is their review:
My husband and I enjoyed our stay in this spacious studio cottage while visiting the area. It was lovely, modern, comfortable and quite clean. Located in a charming upscale neighborhood, we could easily walk the few blocks to restaurants in downtown Alameda. Kudos to our congenial host. We would be quite happy to stay here again.
Overall a very nice place to stay. Quiet, very nice unit with great finishes and construction and everything worked well. For those that like to sleep in, the place is very bright due to skylights, FYI.
We did, however, encounter an ant infestation on our food. While ants are common in Alameda, we had to throw out some food and the ants remained and we couldn’t use the kitchen for breakfast (coffee maker also had ants) which is one of the reasons we stay at such places rather than hotels. Owner came over and cleaned up and applied ant bait to spots but ants remained. Disappointing that beyond the ant treatment of the unit there was no offer to compensate us for the lost food or inconvenience.
FYI, ants are common in Alameda especially when entering the rainy season so we were not surprised, but it was a large infestation and sorta spoiled the use of the kitchen for us. I suspect it won’t be much of an issue in other times of the year.
Relaxing location…feels way bigger than a studio…perfect location for concert attendance at Oakland Arena and not a bad drive to do Napa for half a day to see my friends from east coast…will definitely plan to stay here again when in the area

Great, clean, new studio in Alameda. Great location close to the beach, restaurants but in a quiet neighborhood with driveway parking available. Wonderful hosts, easy access and clear communication. Such a comfortable spot with all the amenities you need. Full kitchen, beautiful skylights, nice bathroom. A great little escape!
