My family of 4 stayed fo 5 mights.
Gloria is a fantastic woman...very hospitable, kind, intelligent and fun-spirited. I love that she's such a business woman and cares about how she conducts business (very professional). She was always responsive and had lovely children. Her cottage is perfect for families...We felt extremely safe and very much at home. This home is central to the beach, accessible to South Bay cities, or less than 30 minutes from cities that are more north. Parking was not an issue for us. One night at 9p, we still were able to park in front of the cottage...but one night at 1a we parked around the block on a side street (3-4 minute walk) and it was not unsafe or people hanging around.
The actual space is large, clean, nice comfortable beds, cute furniture, and thoughtful accents. It felt so homey. This cottage has a lot of history within her family and there are pieces of her familial history inside the cottage. We loved sitting outside to have our coffee in her beautiful garden. And yes, when you sleep at night, it is very quiet and you do not hear noise from the street. Overall, my entire family loved our stay here. We left a almost a week ago and we we're still raving about our fun time there :-)
