Location and value can't be beat. You are steps to Mission beach with a patio that looks out on the water. I somehow missed that there wasn't a separate, private entrance and that the only private space you get is the bedroom (bathroom/patio is shared). However, if I had understood those going in I would have been very pleased. Richard is very kind and gave us use of the microwave when we wanted and to come and go as we pleased. There was an intense storm while we were there and the power went out for quite some time. He provided us with a battery powered light. We did truly enjoy our stay at Richard's -- wish it would have not been during a crazy storm where we were stuck in the house most of the time :)
