Room is available in Albany with flexible move-in date

Room is available now with a flexible, move-in date. In a family neighborhood, which is nice and safe. 8 minute walk to BART. 1/2 block walk to Trader Joe's, Starbucks, CVS and Luckys in El Cerrito Plaza. Shared modern kitchen with stove, oven,... refrigerator and microwave oven. Kitchen has new flooring. Coin laundry in the laundry room in the basement. Modern insulated windows. No elevator.

Bedroom and bathroom have recently been painted, carpets cleaned, and kitchen has new flooring.

I am a Cal graduate (class of 87) with a major in history.

Share Internet service provider (SONIC) and PG&E, and cleaning service. Per person, SONIC costs $35 per month, PG&E about $32 a month, and I have a cleaning service which costs $100 per cleaning.

I have an antenna for the TV (which gets over 80 channels free through the air) instead of cable TV.

I have been in this apartment unit since 1999.

When my landlady increases the rent, she usually raises it about 5% effective August 1.
She did not raise it last year at all, but if history is a guide, I think she will raise it $100 a month for the unit. FYI.

Looking for non-smoker. Credit check required. And I would appreciate if you provide references.
