Charming Historic Home
5/5 Staying in this home was like taking a trip back to the early 1900s - truly historic. We loved that about it. The bedrooms are upstairs so if you have difficulty navigating stairs please keep that in mind. It was great to have a parking spot in the driveway. The house was not clean when we arrived due to a miscommunication with the manager of the house but a quick call to her (Maritza) and the cleaning crew came right away; it was ok since we had things to do. Elmwood is a lovely neighborhood and felt safe to us. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful location
4/5 Stayed with friends. We were all in town for an event. The place was great but the keyless entry did not work. Fortunately there was a key on the property and it worked out fine. Easy walk to lots of yummy food and Cal campus.

Perfect location
4/5 Great spot to visit with local friends. We happened to hit the unusual, excessive heat, which was hard in an older house, but with a couple of fans everything would have been perfect

Manager's Response:
From the owner: "Glad you liked the area and the house. You did visit during peak fire season heat; definitely looking into cooling solutions. Fans or swamp coolers. Air conditioning is not a norm in the inner bay and for houses of this age. Happy to have you again."
Great stay in Berkeley!
5/5 Group of friends came to town for a long weekend and a concert at The Greek theater on UC Berkeley campus. Neighborhood was great with lots of walking options for groceries, restaurants, etc. and we were able to walk to/from campus as well. The house was very comfortable for all of us and we loved the charm it had.

Manager's Response:
From the owner: "Glad you enjoyed the stay and the walks. The neighborhood is good for that, and the campus including the major event venues is also walkable. Happy to have you again."
Moved across country
5/5 Perfect house for us as we moved our son from the east coast to attend Berkeley Law. Plenty of space to store all the things we needed to acquire and park the large SUV we rented to move him. The only issue we encountered was the keyless entry was not working and the physical key was so well hidden that finding it at midnight when we arrived was not easy.
