Very comfortable and privacy was all wonderful. Will be back when visiting the area.

This place is lovely! It's so cute and has a wonderful little private porch area with comfy hanging chairs. The owners are kind and some of the most accommodating people I've come across on any vacation rental site. Checkout procedures were easy, quick, and reasonable.
This area is incredibly difficult to get around in and really is not suitable for new drivers. I was lucky to have people who are familiar with Berkeley driving with me, but the stress driving around here would cause a novice driver may cause you to want to pick another place. Conversely, if you're willing to walk, you can see an adorable town with lots of shops, cafes, etc and some of the most incredible views of the Bay Area I've ever seen from gorgeous parks.
I do think the owner is getting a bit ripped off by their cleaning service- anything that isn't immediately visible is completely untouched. Your jacket falls off the hook behind the door in the corner? Something falls under the bed? It's gonna be covered in what looks like years of dust bunnies that have been pushed out of sight instead of picked up. The cleaning staff also don't seem to clear out spiders, as I had to get rid of maybe two dozen while I was there. If you're comfortable with small spiders, this place is perfectly fine, but watch out if you're traveling with someone who is afraid of them.
Overall, this place is comfy, affordable, in a cute and (mostly) walkable area, and has hosts who will be very good to you.

This unit was perfect for our stay during the beginning of a home remodel. The deck overlooking the big oak tree was so handy, and the unit stayed nice and cool during a short heat wave. The owner was so gracious and helpful.

We were in the Bay Area for a wedding in Berkeley. This VRBO was the perfect location for us. The unit has all the essentials--nice bed, nice coffee maker, nice shower, nice living room--but is also very artfully decorated. And Kensington is a beautiful area. We would stay here again!

This is the perfect place for a couple or single person. The neighborhood has all you need within walking distance. It was very close to our son's house. We will be back. Our host was very friendly but also respected "our space".

Quiet, comfortable, stress free home away from home.
A very comfortable, well-appointed, spacious vacation get-away. I liked that the layout afforded privacy. I will come here again.

Great stay
The apartment was perfect for us. Very clean, comfortable and convenient. Trish supplied toiletries in the bath and condiments and spices in the kitchen. The location in the town of Kensington is close to restaurants, a grocery, and a wine shop. It's a beautiful and safe area to walk. Trish responds immediately when contacted. She and her husband could not have been more accommodating. We had a great stay.
