Arriving was very super easy. The door code was made to be the last four of my phone number (easy to remember!)
We found easy street parking.
Very very nice residential street. You can easily see how close you are to the coast/beach/pier.
We felt super welcome when we came in: the house was super clean but also cozy feeling! Instructions were very clear and easy to understand, being that Scott wasn't there when we arrived (which we knew ahead of time). We immediately found our GORGEOUS room, not a speck of dust anywhere, so cozy feeling, beautiful beautiful window looking over ….. EVERYTHING it felt like! We could see the harbor as well as some really beautiful balconies from our second floor window.
Cute little basket of welcome "treats", including water! A chocolate covered fortune cookie. Easy to understand instructions for wi-fi, tv, and basically everything. A map with some key points to visit nearby including coffee shop, restaurants, bars.
We even shared a drink with the host later that evening when we returned from our daily adventures. He was just a perfect host, so so kind, and actually enjoyable. I usually never expect to interact much with a host. But this one, he's a winner :)
He made the stay enjoyable, whether he was there, or not. It was a great stay (short unfortunately, but great.)
