Katja responded same day to questions prior to booking, and responded within 15 mins when I was staying there. The place was as described and looked like the pictures. It was actually even bigger than I thought it looked from pics. Felt cozy and open at the same time thanks to the skylights. I'm used to my bedroom which has black out blinds, but I didn't mind the brightness as I wanted to be up early every day anyhow. I felt like I had privacy which was nice even though the guest house is on her property where she lives. The neighborhood felt safe with a Trader Joe's within walking distance and a crossfit gym. I would stay here again. Thank you, Katja, for a pleasant stay!
