We stayed at Scott's for a long weekend while attending a wedding. The bedroom and (not attached) private bathroom are at the end of a hallway and feel very private. We didn't hear anything except some city noises when we had the windows open. Entry into the house was very easy with a passcode, which was nice because we didn't have to keep track of a key. Internet was great. We used the beach cruisers everyday. The only thing I didn't realize is that Scott lives near the top of a hill. The beach cruisers are single speed, so we ended up having to walk up the hill most of the time (and we are fairly avid bikers back home). The walk to the strand is about 20 minutes; walking to the beach is another 10-15 minutes. Scott was around the whole time and was very pleasant to talk with. A highlight of our stay was that he offered to drive us out to Palos Verdes and gave us pointers on where to walk to see the views and whales!
