my stay was incredibly peaceful. check-in was a breeze and allison, the host, was prompt, gracious and great at communicating. the ac worked well for the hot days and it was cool enough at night to turn it off. i actually liked that the shower was separate - no issues with temperature either. the dogs are adorable, too. i wanted a low-key staycation and it was the perfect spot for it. parking is super easy if you have a car, and the 101 is mere moments away and can easily get you anywhere you need you need to go.
