Before we even arrived in California mayor and was very communicative and helped me via text email and phone call orient myself to her lovely condo and surrounding area. Before we arrived I asked Marin for my one luxury item that I can't live without - a Nespresso machine. Within two days of our arrival she had brought an espresso machine to the condo with refill pods included! She also took me to lunch and walked the area to be sure I had a feel for nearby grocery, drug stores and restaurants. Marin went so above and beyond and hooked us up with a friend who got us discounted tickets to the opera! Yay! The parking spot was key and very safe and convenient. Also loved cable tv on demand. Bedding was great and always felt safe and secure in the condo! My daughter and I plan to come back in the future and will be certain to stay at Marin's! (Thanks for the bottles of wine and convenience grocery items you had waiting for us upon arrival).
