Robert's place is a great place to stay to be near everything. You do hear cars at night but you're so tired from a great day of activity that you fall asleep on the comfortable beds. Robert and Laurie were extremely helpful and accommodating. On our last day he let us keep our bags at his place since our flight didn't leave until very late and we had a day tour where we couldn't take our bags. That was so helpful. We love California and will return!!!
