Nomadomia Rating: 4.4 stars

• Fatme's apartment is a great choice for short-term rentals in Oakland, especially for work trips or longer stays.
• The location is convenient, with easy access to public transportation and amenities.
• The host is friendly and responsive, and the apartment is clean and well-maintained.
• Some minor issues with heat and street noise, but overall a great place to stay.

Good points:

• Clean and well-maintained apartment
• Great location, close to BART station, restaurants, and Jack London Square
• Fast and reliable WiFi
• Comfortable bed and nice desk chair
• Friendly and responsive host (Fatme)
• Fully equipped kitchen with espresso machine

Bad points:

• Heat wave issue in one review (summer 2023), but host provided fans to help
• Some street noise on Friday and Saturday nights, but quieted down for bedtime

Time trend:

• Reviews from 2021 and 2022 mention the neighborhood issues, but reviews from 2023 do not mention this as a concern.
• Reviews from 2023 mention the heat wave issue, but this is likely a seasonal problem.
