Place is exactly as pictured, however the entrance description was slightly misleading... he states that there is a bamboo gate, but it is a plain white fence you pull a string to open the gate door, then walk in straight and there is a separate in-law quarters to the left which is the place of stay. Has a nice breeze and is pretty cool, there is an ac unit and a slightly noisy ceiling fan. He provides a bunch of brochures for things to do and see also a handy map on the desk of restaurants and stores nearby the house. There were a bunch of good stores less than a quarter mile away like a Trader Joe’s, Starbucks, pubs, and a row of restaurants and coffee shops. Also provides bikes for your use. He made the unit very Apple phone friendly with an Apple TV and has a couple iPhone chargers already plugged in for an Apple user’s convenience. He was very friendly and graciously offered to move our car into the driveway after he returned home since we were out. He has dogs but we did not hear them once, we only found out from the previous guests’ note. I would definitely stay again!
