We had a fantastic time with Nik, James and the Doods. The apartment was clean, nicely renovated and larger than I had anticipated. I was so happy to be in that part of town - near but not too near to downtown. Very close to the ocean, some amazing (and off leash) parks, and my favorite Mexican restaurant (la tortilla Mexican?). There is a bit of sound transference from upstairs into the bedroom but it was never disturbing enough to mention it to the hosts. Had we brought it up, I'm sure they would have done everything in their power to prevent it happening again - they were very accommodating. But like it said, it was mild and didn't upset us. The hosts were friendly, approachable and easy to chat with but they also gave us space to do our own thing when we wanted. Great apartment, hosts, yard and 15 minutes to downtown by bus... We couldn't have asked for a better stay!
