As a woman traveling alone, safety is a top priority for me. I felt perfectly safe walking in this neighborhood, day and night. Greta and Ron were extremely friendly and made sure that I had everything I needed. The guest room and bath are just inside the front door, making it easy to come and go at leisure. I did not use the kitchen or patio but felt most welcome to use both. I recommend this conveniently located home without reservation--close to shops, a public library, and a great park.
