Michelle and Ryder were able to accommodate a reservation for my friend and me with less than 48 hours notice. They are clearly hosting pros, and were kind and quick to respond to all messages.

Check-in and out was a breeze, as a key lock-box eliminated the need to meet for key exchanges. Great location, central to PB...just a short walk to Trader Joes, and a longer but easily doable walk down the strip to the beach. Wi-fi was fast and easy to use. The hosts left a list of recommended places in the area, which was really helpful. We used uber a lot, which provided us opportunities to get downtown and surrounding neighborhoods for $10-$15 (even less if you use uber pool). While we didn't spend a lot of time in PB, this place was a great location and allowed easy access to both north and south neighborhoods. Neighborhood is quiet, and street parking is free and extremely easy to find.

The house itself is actually better than described. The living room has been updated since the photos were taken, with a lovely new couch, chair, and TV. Lots of natural light and cute décor. There is a fully equipped kitchen with plates, glasses, blender, pots/pans, etc. Bathroom/shower is excellent, and the queen bed is very comfy. I did not see linens for the pullout futon, so make sure you ask about that if you intend to use it. Note that there is no air conditioning in the house. There are plenty of fans and cross breeze with the windows open however, and we took full advantage of the awesome weather to have the windows open. For us the lack of AC was not an issue.

Overall - great place! Would stay here again or at one of Michelle and Ryder's other properties in the future.
