I had a great experience at Mary's house. super cute beachy vibe - bright condo space. 2 blocks from the beach, pool/hot tub available anytime, room was private with 2 beds in it and still enough room to store luggage. small desk and table to store things on, too. Private bathroom was a great size with large counter space and empty drawers to hold all your toiletries, great shower pressure, too. Linens provided were comfortable and nice. Undercover gated parking was really convenient as I had a rental car I used a lot.
Mary let me use her bike around town which was awesome.
Mary works from home so good to keep in mind if you're looking for a host who is out of the house but I was hardly there so it didn't matter.
Double size bed was super comfy - along with comfy pillows and soft sheets. Very quiet room & neighbors - I had great sleep during my stay.
Mary's dog is super friendly as is she. Mary will engage you in a chat but also leave you to your own devices which was a perfect balance. Would highly recommend this space to stay for anyone who loves the beach & is traveling in Hermosa.
