The hosts Bruno and Cynthia were very good in responding to our questions and communications prior to the arrival. When we got there the house was very, very clean and tidy, with all necessary items in place, plus nice little touches to make us feel home, such as fresh eggs, new linens/towels, loaf of bread, etc. Closets have extra stuff such as a vacuum, ironing board, crib, baby dolls etc. (we didn't use them). Shower hardware and water pressure/temperature were very nice.
Bruno walked us through the property as we checked in. One great feature was the washer/dryer unit that worked well. Parking was a bit tight but this is not a problem at all.
A good grocery store Pavilions is nearby, only 5 minutes on foot. Easy walking distance from S. Lake Avenue with many shops and restaurants. Right next to Caltech if you are visiting there.
We completely enjoyed the stay, and highly recommend this home.
