B-Love's Guest House - Oakland, California

Tracy Stanton

Staying at B-Loves Guest house felt like staying my aunties home. The space was filled with love, warmth, creativity, and history.

The location was perfect. I was able to get to all of the historical places and spaces that I wanted visit.

Traci the owner was very knowledgeable, vibrant and down to earth. The community that she created is very supportive. I was on a solo trip and I felt very safe and comfortable there

I would definitely stay there again.

Our cast of THE JOY RIDE came from Los Angeles to perform our show and stayed there. They had an absolutely incredible experience! Thank you for your phenomenal and exquisite space you have created that gives so much nourishment to others! I can't wait to stay there myself soon. With Appreciation, Jesse Bliss and The Roots and Wings Project

Traci was incredibly accommodating and our interactions were welcoming. She was very prompt with communicating and there wasn't any additional amenities or assistance I needed beyond the initial check-in and connection to wifi. The only thing I would say is that I stayed in the upstairs unit and it is sooo beautiful and comfy, but I didn't understand why I needed to use the kitchen in the downstairs unit when there was a full kitchen upstairs. It didn't really end up being an issue because I did not cook and I had a mini fridge in my room. There is a microwave upstairs and in one of the rooms that was adjoined to me.

The back yard is so cute and cozy and I would take advantage of it, if you have time. I loved sitting in the sun and reading a book. I also appreciated that there was a washer and dryer, iron, and ironing board there, if needed. The neighborhood is also cute, quiet, walkable, and I felt very safe.

All in all, it was a lovely experience and a comfortable stay. I will be booking with B Love's Guest house every time I visit Oakland moving forward.

B-Love's is my favorite place to stay when I'm in Oakland. It's a true oasis of down-to-earth California hospitality where you're always sure to meet interesting folks, and you can just unwind & relax in the beautiful garden. Highly recommend!

As an artist and someone who needed to experience a refreshing solitude that embraces my creativity, I found B-Loves guest house amenities to be a prime location for that. I was greeted with an opportunity to enjoy that in this space. Not to mention notable events that brings community together!

I had a lovely time! The space is adorable and that garden is just divine. I loved sitting out there, enjoying the sun and taking in all the fresh air. I also loved the beautiful art that’s everywhere. The owner is a renowned artist and it shows. And she was an excellent host !! I had a wonderful time. My only complaint is that I couldn’t stay longer, but I will definitely be back.

We had 3 guests stay at B Love’s guest house for an event we produced, and it was an absolute pleasure! Traci was so kind, communicative, and accommodating, and showed our guests and ourselves such a great time with her. The house has so much history within the walls, from the photographs she took herself as a professional photographer documenting historical moments, to the different rooms showcasing individual personality. This house fosters community interaction and allows for people to connect easily. Traci even came out to our event to support our Black History month cause. Wonderful stay and couldn’t recommend more!

Room and house were beautiful, friendly tenants, wonderful back yard. Mrs. Traci was very welcoming. Private bathroom meant we had an entire floor to ourselves during our visit. Only drawback was the street noise our first night there, but things calmed down after the holiday weekend.
