I like to start this stating that my biggest issue with this was due to safety. Personal safety. (This place is not for women) I checked in later in the evening (see further down why) and was tired. I wanted to relax and go to bed. I was met by her son, which was a bit suprising since I at least expected her. She did mention AFTER we booked that she would be out of town, find that convenient. List your place as a woman, attract women, then leave it to your son.... ok. When i arrived, he made me wait a bit in the cold and when he did approach me smelled of cigaretttes, alcohol, and marijuana. I get its legal in CA but come on. So we go in the house - take your shoes off and LEAVE them outside the house (never mind if they go missing) and insert door code. Walking into the house is like walking into a mid century church. The walls are dark all lined with art of a particular Christian tastes, overgrown plants all over and Dark... DARK. Lights are not allowed to be on, and you have to turn one off as soon as you turn one on or your guide will get upset. I was walked down 3, yes 3!! Flights of stairs through narrow and once again DARK hallways that ultimately led to a room in a corner. I could not see as he kept flipping lights on and off. I spent way too much time in the dark with him. It made me nervous. The house had a musty odor as did the room. BTW instructions said, never sleep between the sheets (so sleep where??) The room was fine enough, order aside the big issue is it did not have a lock. Her son explained there were multiple men on the property staying and he himself was in a space just down the hall from me. No lock in the room, he was smoking, weed, and alcohol (smell gave it away). I could not stay, I went through the check in, saw the property and I still could not stay. The hairs on my neck were standing and being 3 flights down in a dark, musty, secluded room with a house full of strange men, just made me fear for my safety. As I gathered my things, I failed to find the light for the stairs, and going up i nearly fell backwards as I was met head on by a male guest coming down, who also could not find the light and nearly pushed me down the stairs. He and I chatted for a bit, and he was a bit inappropriate. Even more reason for me to leave. All in all this is not about LuLu's quirky home, her abundance of rules, her open policy when it comes to men and women or never being home. It was about "did i feel safe, and the answer is...NO!!!!...
