We appreciated Frances' attention and communication. She met us at the door, kindly offered info on local restaurants, brought fresh grapes and offered to bring in some drying laundry during a shower when we were away. Her place has a sensational panoramic view of the working harbor's big ships, ferries, and railroad yard as well as quiet Quail Island and the scenic southern bay. We enjoyed watching the ship traffic including an Antarctic icebreaker. Kitchen and bath work well. The outdoor deck is just above a road but its spectacular high perch is unbeatable on a sunny day. Only quibble is that the house could benefit from some editing of the knick-knacks, which tend to crowd out every horizontal surface. That said, the view, the view, the view!
