I would like to start off this review by saying that I was in no way misled by the description of the room, however I cannot in good conscious give a 5-star rating based on my experience. I stayed in this room in June 2017.
Pros:
Betty is very nice and receptive to the needs of the tenants. I was supposed to stay in this room for a month, but the previous tenant decided to extend his stay by a week, so I was put into a different room during that time that was larger, had a queen size bed, own bathroom, and a balcony. Though the ceiling fan didn't work, there was usually a nice breeze coming through the room if the balcony door and bathroom window were both open. Once I moved in to this room, it was clean and tidy with a couch in addition to the desk and chair. There was plenty of closet space and a ceiling fan that worked. The house is only about a mile from Ralph's and Ranch 99 grocery stores, and there are plenty of restaurants serving different types of asian food nearby. There is also a refrigerator in the garage for tenants to use.
Cons:
The biggest downside of staying in this room is that it is on the south west corner of house. While the temperature was fine in the morning, by mid-afternoon, the southern California heat would cause the temperature in the room to be above 80 degrees well past 12am, even with the windows open and ceiling fan on. Betty is looking in to getting awnings installed to provide some shade for the room, but at this point there are none, and honestly the heat had a large impact on my quality of comfort and sleep while staying here. Betty would turn on the air conditioning whenever I asked, but it didn't make much of a difference in this room. Additionally, while I had full reception to the wifi, it would rarely allow me to even check or respond to simple emails when no one else was connected. Another thing to be aware of while staying in this room is that you have a shared bathroom and are not allowed to use the kitchen. Some longer term tenants are able to use the kitchen for cooking, but shorter term tenants are not.
The biggest thing that affected my stay was the heat at night. Otherwise, I enjoyed the room for the month I was there.
