Esther's place was just as pictured! Clean and neat! Esther was very responsive and she made check-in quick and simple. Any noises you might hear from their adjacent house is equivalent to the amount of noise you'd expect from living in an apartment with thin walls. It was perfectly quiet in the evening and I only ever heard some miscellaneous noises and indiscernible talking. If you're picky about noise, it might bother you, but I think it was perfectly tolerable and Esther makes it clear in her description that these noises are to be expected. There was ample street parking and it was pretty close to the nearest freeway! I was out of the house most of the day, but the small space was perfect for one or two people. I highly recommend it if you just need a place to sleep and wind down during your trip.
