Justin and Elizas place was the perfect location for exploring the surrounding area. I recommend renting a bike next door and riding as much of 'The Strand' as you can while there. Also great because its walking distance to many good restaurants. I recommend Hermosa Brewing Company and Brothers Burritos. The courtyard is not particularly scenic, so my tip is after brewing your pour over coffee ( a nice touch), take it with you to a bench on the nearby pier for some great people watching.
