When the listing states that this place is centrally located, they aren’t kidding! We came prepared with a car to get around the city but truly didn’t need it to enjoy our stay. We tried new cafes and restaurants (shout out to Equator and Boho- both must haves), took a stroll by the marina, and spent some time enjoying nature and art at the Palace of Fine Arts, all by foot.
We checked in pretty easily (though it was a longer check-in process than a regular Airbnb with keypad) and parked in the somewhat small garage provided to us. We were very happy to have the added safety parking in the city, plus comes in handy if you’re there during a street sweeping day. We had some card fob issues that got remedied quickly by the front desk, and entered our humble, cozy double-room to find eclectic decorations resembling an Italian villa. It was equipped with a mini fridge, microwave, and keurig, although we decided to opt for supporting the local businesses instead. The bathroom was also a pleasant surprise! It was decently upgraded (much better than your regular motel) and came with plenty of fresh linens and toiletries. Same goes for the bed linens, very cozy.
The street is pretty noisy (trash at 6am on Monday just one example), but that was expected and communicated in the listing - just be mindful if that’s an issue for you. Overall, really wonderful little place that you’d almost miss if you weren’t looking! So beautiful and we can’t wait to come back.
