Walter is an extremely generous host - he personally met us at the door for a tour of the house. He provides espresso and a smattering of snacks and fruit to welcome his guests. The house was comfortable and clean and secure. We really enjoyed our stay. My only regret is that we didn't allow for time to hang out in the backyard to barbecue.

A note about the heat. We stayed during the Santa Ana wind season. Although it was warm, the house cooled down very nicely in the evening.
