I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Rochelle and our stay at her beautiful home. She was beyond friendly and welcoming through the whole experience. Her instructions on how to get in and how to find/use everything in the home were perfect, and she was so quickly responsive and helpful when we had a question. For example, I wasn't able to find the iron (even though it was right in front of my face). I emailed her to ask her and, not only did she get back to me quickly, she also pointed out that they have a professional clothes steamer in another closet, exactly how to use it, and recommended that it might be better for the clothes we were wearing to the wedding. So kind and personal.

The house is classic, cozy, and wonderfully maintained. It's clear from the condition of things like the original tile and the beautiful hardwood floors that they have taken such good care of the house. Even though it's an older home with all the character and charm, it also has modern amenities, like great wifi and central heating/air. The way that you walk in from the street to a walled courtyard first, then into the home, makes it feel very private and safe, and it's very quiet for sleeping and relaxing.

The location is great. We rented a car (so easy to park right in front of the home), but still opted to walk a lot - to Whole Foods, the Farmer's Market, cafe, Grove shopping area, etc.

Finally, the organization in the house is spectacular. Everything is well-labeled and has notes in the appropriate places, like where to find beach towels should you need them and how to use the remotes for the TV when you open the little box that holds the remotes.

We were sad to leave, and would highly recommend this to anyone, and hope to go back ourselves.
