Charming and cozy, warm and welcoming. Lainie and Charlie are consummate hosts! Public transit is just around the corner, but we walked nearly everywhere. Easy access to beach on one side and city on the other. Plus, if you're a reader, they have a great selection of books! Personal touches included local recommendations; a saved parking spot (!); coffee, juice, and snacks; plus all the comforts of home. The neighborhood is silent at night, which is a welcome bonus in the city. Can't wait to stay again!
