The pros: Great neighborhood and easy street parking. Walkable to awesome restaurants and lots of fruit trees on the property. Catalina had cookies and strawberries waiting for us upon our arrival. The bed is comfortable and the bathroom is spacious. The kitchen is large and welcoming and well-equipped and the hosts made sure we knew where everything was for coffee and tea. The house is located at the back of the property so it is sits well off the street and is very peaceful and quiet.
The cons: There is no heat in the bedroom or bathroom, so be prepared to be a bit cold if visiting during winter months. If you ask for a space heater upon arrival, that would be wise. Guests should know that the private entrance leads not to the bedroom, but to the bathroom. You must walk through a communal living room with a large tv in order to reach the bedroom. The tv room is a shared space and when the hosts are watching tv, it is audible in the bedroom. The carpeting in the room is quite old and does have a bit of an odor.
