The location was great. Earl was great. Room was nice. I loved the touch with the orchids. I just got unlucky. There are three bedrooms, two are adjacent and one is separate. The two adjacent ones share a bathroom, which turned out not to be a problem in the four nights I stayed. The only issue was one night, my neighbors in the adjacent room couldn't keep quiet, even though I asked nicely. They seemed friendly but they were up till 3:30 am chatting in their room. One of those things that happens. Three out of four nights, peaceful and quiet. I think three different sets of people stayed in the other room while I was there. It wasn't the same people every night.
The Golden State Park is terrific (my first time visiting.) Be sure to visit Clement Street, about a 15 minute walk to the north while you are there. Very cool street. Overall I had a great time. Was visiting friends and family. Earl is responsive, friendly, clear, and concise.
