John was a wonderful host, and the place was lovely. The fully equipped kitchen was nice and the bathtub was a plus. Very close to the beach and a number of restaurants. I stayed for two weeks while I was getting some dental work done nearby. The house was a great place to rest and recuperate. I would stay again.
There was some noise from the neighborhood in the mornings. If you are an early riser and get going early, this probably wouldn't bother you. I like to sleep in, especially when resting after deep dental work. So I did get woken up at about 7:30 most mornings by the construction going on next door. Hammering etc. If this would be an issue for you perhaps ask John if the construction work is finished yet, I'm sure it will be done at some point. And there are a couple of young children living next door, sometimes they were noisy in the mornings.
John occasionally watches people's dogs for a few days at a time, there were two separate dogsits while I was there. I actually like having the dog energy around, they were fun to be with. I actually found myself missing them when their owners came back to get them.
There was nothing John could have done about the noise and I still give him and the house 5 stars.
