“This gym is the best because they have light weight hand weights which no other gyms do. When I'm trying to get back into shape, I need 1, 2, 3 and 5 pound weights. Other gyms only have 1 set that is typically already being used or none. Also the staff at the Albany branch YMCA are too notch. They pay attention when I scanned in, pronounced my name correctly and went out of the yr way to sign me up for a class that I had missed. Clean, new equipment & warm accessible classes. Love this gym”

Children.”

“I did a walk-in just to have a quick peek today and they fortunately had one spot open! The cats were so friendly and receptive to pets and scratches. The separation of studios further inside the cafe was really cool for individualized socializing. It's also super clean and stocked with toys and seating areas. The decor and cat houses were so cute too!”

“I love this little theater for its great little, often, local shows. I have seen probably a couple dozen shows here over the years. I recommend the first row seating over the VIP tables often since the tables are very close to the stage.
Also, the accessibility bathroom is on the lobby floor, but the majority of the stalls are down some steep stairs.
Parking is atrocious in Chinatown, plan ahead!”

“If you like bunnies, this place is the best. They rescue, care for, foster and adopt abandoned and abused pet rabbits. I've been a foster for them for years. Super rewarding and gratifying. They are supportive and helpful.”

“Staff are great, specifical team the checked me in at late afternoon helpful, and pleasant, and well organized. I found it welcoming and lobby area had plently if information abiut sites and places to eat in the area, with everything posted in a engaging fun way, yet profession and lobby and hallways very clean. Did a walk around inspection of the kichen, dinning/common area, bathroom, TV area and everything was exteremly clean and well cared for. I stayed in 5 room (3 others besides myself) and room was clean. Llinens offered were professional laundered and I like new/perfect condition. Many noteable San Fransico sites I found to be within a 1-2 walkable distance. I will definitely stay here when I must travel SF for medical appointments, and recommend to others! Must appreciation to the hard-working staff.”

“Pros: Easy parking at the garage next-door, there’s not a bad seat in the house, seats are fairly roomy with a little more than average leg room in front, restrooms are decent, free water near the concession stand, people are friendly, acoustic sounds great.

Cons; no assigned seating, there are not very many things to eat at the concession stand, and if you are gluten-free, you are out of luck.

All in all, a fabulous venue. If you get an intermission, you could run back to your car for a snack just next-door.”

“Been to this place twice now to fix up my bikes, it's an amazing asset to the community!

Every time I went I learned a lot about bikes that I was missing, not to mention I paid a fraction of what I would have in a full-service bike shop. You get out what you put in, the are mechanics at hand, with varying degrees of experience, but you are expected to do most of the fixing yourself. I found that as long as you are actively trying to fix your bike, even if you are struggling, one (or more) of the mechanics will eventually come by and help out.”

“I think they do a service to the community and beyond. Many of the up turned faces judge saying it's wrong and what they do here is a grind. A thankless job dealing with the task of helping out some very difficult and demanding people that many have abandoned and don't care about. A lot of volunteer hours go into their work and very few people simply say thank you for your service. Instead it's entitlement and give me this and give me that and ride remarks if they can't accommodate. So, PLEASE if you read this or you stop by take a second and say thank you and appreciate the service they do provide. This place does great work!!”

“I had two of my French Bulldogs spayed at AFC on 4/8/2024. To say the least, I was very nervous as brachiocephalic breeds, run a higher chance of complications with and from anesthesia. Because of this, most low cost spay/neuter clinics, including local shelters will not accept Frenchies or other brachiocephalic breeds. However, not only did AFC accept my girls, Dr. Goh and her team took EXCEPTIONAL care of both of them! The organization of the entire clinic is stellar, from scheduling (only done online around mid month, so may be a bit of a wait to get an appointment), to drop off and pick up! One of my girls, Paris, bounced right back to normal within 5-6 hrs after picking her up,(I believe a bit too soon), because of this, I was worried about my other girl, London, who took almost 2 days to start acting like herself again. Needless to say, Dr. Goh was absolutely caring, responsive and patient with my after hour concerns. I would like to mention that AFC is a nonprofit clinic who is accepting donations and also has a GoFundMe to help sponsor the move to their new location. If you are local to this wonderful organization, they can also use old newspapers and other types of donations.”

“We love Rocket Dog Rescue! They found an amazing foster mom to care for our newly-adopted dog JJ, until we were able to meet & bring him home. They’re a well run organization with people who love finding homes for dogs. Hope they get all the funding they need to continue.”

“We came to see a friend perform in Beautiful. What a wonderful show. We happened to be here on a warm evening, which was wonderful. I've been here on other nights when it gets cold when the sun goes down.In short, performances are always great, but dress for the weather to fully enjoy the experience.”

“We love the vets at SPCA! A vet visit is around $110. Vaccinations are around $50 each. We've had situations where something has come up with our dog and they've just advised us over the phone free of charge. They even said "You can come in and pay $160 for an urgent visit but there isn't much we can do for the condition and will just send you home." In more urgent situations, it's been easy to get a same day appointment just with calling. I also like supporting their hospital since it's a non profit and proceeds go back to helping and saving animals.”

“Berkeley Hills Nursery School is a truly wonderful place for young children to grow, learn, and thrive. The nurturing environment, dedicated teachers, and play-based curriculum create an ideal setting for early childhood development. Families appreciate the strong sense of community and the emphasis on social-emotional learning.”

“Many hidden gems here. Get there early, so much to see and all proceeds support the Oakland museum of California. You do need to really take your time though. So plan for a half a day at least. No junk, great finds.”

“Nice people - But they are Elks, what do you expect!
We dry camped, that is all they offer.
The lodge tour was wonderful!!! What a cool lodge building.
They are a block from Main Street Alameda, lots of different food choices.
Try Signal coffee, you will understand how a small shop does coffee better than next door Peet’s or Starbucks.”

“Easy drive up and drop off. They do not accept oxygen tubing and said they have an overstock of emesis bags, so didn't want those either. I'm happy they exist.”

“Great place to find art supplies at an affordable price. Parking can be a bit difficult to find on the weekends, and sometimes items are a hit or miss. I would definitely recommend checking it out during the weekday for the best items”

“Of the social services I've encountered in the city, the people here are much better, actually trying, actually actively help people get employment (a friend at a shelter was helped to get a job despite criminal record, smoking weed, etc.), and likely actually help people get housing.Also, kind of a secret, but another org gives out lunch and dinner across the street, and they provide coffee n snacks throughout the day, making it a good place to recharge.”

“I think the square is very good. However, they do not protect their users from scammers, the way I feel they should. People are out here buying products, getting the completed products, and then asking for a refund and Square is giving it without even asking any questions.”

“Storyline church came into my life at the perfect time when I was going through a lot of inner healing and growth in my relationship with God. There is a lot of warmth when you step into the walls of Storyline, one that I certainly wasn't used to from a previous church I went to for years. I prayed about finding a church like this and it almost seemed too good to be true to find it, but God was listening to my prayers and he delivered like He always does. The community is amazing and the church is continuously growing. Pastor Akeem loves to connect with each person who walks through the doors (which is hard to come by with other churches), and the leadership team goes above and beyond in how they connect with all the congregants. It's exciting to see where Storyline is headed this year and I'm so thankful to be here!”

“Got tested 2nd day of the new year. Community was very kind and supportive. Even the lady who took my tests was a nice conversationalist and made the process easier for me despite the tests being super new to me. 10/10 I’m going back again ??”

“I went to this book store with my mom. I'm not into books, but my mom is a big reader. I think all the books are donated or they bought. My mom bought three books, just for $4.50. Really cheap books. That's my 5 stars.”

“This place is tremendous and a MUST for anyone who is remotely interested in video games.

Brought my 11 year old son here and we spent a WHOLE afternoon learning about the games and playing them.

Mason, the Executive Director, is passionate about the history and design of the games. He was available for all questions throughout our visit and helped us a ton. He even led my son through a mini coding session on an Atari computer!

This place is super accessible by BART (only a 5 min walk from the 12th & Broadway station) AND there is a delicious food hall next door.

A+ (I would also recommend going on a W or TH, when it is less crowded).”
