My friend and I were in town to go to a concert at the Rose Bowl after a looong day of hiking and travelling. This was the first time I've ever booked just a room in a house instead of a whole place, so I wasn't really sure what to expect. Any concerns I had were completely unfounded.
We surprised Chris by checking in before the concert instead of afterwards as planned, but she was incredibly gracious and accommodating. In turn, she surprised us by offering to give us a ride to the arena, which really went above and beyond. The traffic was HORRIFIC, but she was such a sport and we got to the show just in the nick of time. When we got home after the show, there were cold water bottles waiting for us on the nightstand. Chris came out and chatted for a couple minutes before bed.
In the morning Chris offered us fresh coffee, which I was desperate to take her up on, but I really needed food first. She recommended The Little Red Hen coffee shop up the street, and it was wonderful. Old school soul food breakfast at old school prices in a tiny old school diner. Definitely check that out.
I only had one massive problem. At her front door she has a sign that says Beware the Wigglebutts... And I didn't see a single fluffy the whole time. Not a trace.
