The house was clean, well decorated, and very conveniently located. There were typical amenities available in the bathroom and kitchen. Beds were very firm (a little hard) with lots of pillows and blankets. There are large slat blinds in the bedrooms, so if you like it dark you will need to bring an eye mask. It was a lovely Spring week so we were never too hot or too cold but there are ceiling fans throughout the house to circulate air. We were close to great restaurants and coffee shops and the neighborhood was absolutely lovely, we really appreciated the tranquil quiet of the location.
The backyard is large with comfortable outdoor furniture but not gated off or completely enclosed (for those who have dogs) -- my dog is a senior and arthritic so we had to carry her up and down the steps to the backyard. We, senior dog included, really enjoyed sitting on the porch drinking coffee and watching the world wake up. Everyone in the neighborhood was friendly. The driveway is steep, so you may scrape the bottom of your car (we have an SUV and it still scraped). Streets are narrow so parking on the curb made me a little worried, but there is plenty of parking around the corner. There is an all boys private high school catty corner to the house, as it was Spring Break there was no noise or traffic.
There is a small casita (enough for one or two people) in what was the garage, so there are a couple of shared spaces we weren't completely aware we would have to share -- backyard, driveway parking (though only one car can park at a time), washing machine/dryer. Folks who were there at the time of our stay were friendly so we had no problem, but they were late risers so we had to stay particularly quiet in the morning.
