Staying at Sara's was definitely a positive experience. It was as a previous review mentioned, just like a little guest house. It's actually an attached bedroom with it's own entrance and patio area with seating.
My Overall Experience, even with a few hiccups was a solid "B". See below for more details.
When I'm on a working or personal trip, my priorities are roughly the same, especially in SoCal. The items most important to me are (1) Bed, (2) Bath, (3) Temperature, and (4) the Overall Experience.
The Bed was a "B+". Good quality and I got a comfortable nights sleep. Not Luxury, but very good!
The Bath was a "C-/D+". BUT ONLY BECAUSE the water pressure was low for the shower. I mentioned this to Sara and she was going to look into it, since the rest of the house was fine. When this is fixed, I would call the Bath a solid B+; very nice towels!
The Temperature was a "B+". The space had a quieter than expected wall AC unit, and a large ceiling fan. When I got back in the evenings, I had left the ceiling fan running, but not the AC (since that's just too expensive and unreasonable while I'm gone). The room was ACTUALLY COOL-ISH which was a shocker given the SoCal heat wave. Once I added the Wall AC, it was quite bearable and comfortable.
Even with the Bathroom twist, I still thoroughly enjoyed my stay with Sara. There was only about 5 minutes when the pressure was so low that I was struggling to finish my shower, but I survived :-). Sara is super nice and I would stay with her again if possible.
Thank you Sara for an enjoyable stay!
