I know it sounds crazy, but I booked this particular house for my dog. We went to Rosie's Dog Beach and Rose Park every day. It was delightful. The neighborhood has some apartment buildings that look a little shady, but the people were all friendly and we felt very safe. The house was perfect for a stay with a pet. Yes, you can hear the upstairs guests, but I got used to it pretty quickly and actually missed the sounds when they were all out. The layout of the house is really nice. The location was perfect for us. The neighborhood is easy to navigate and there are plenty of vegan eateries. Enjoyed my stay.
