We stayed here for one night last minute and it was one of the only places we could find in the area we wanted that wasn't super over priced. I still think this is over priced considering that we stayed in a small windowless room (not sure the tiny "skylight" counts) and could hear everything else going on in the house, including guests staying in other rooms. It's basically a hostel but not what I'd consider hostel pricing, even in California. Otherwise the place was as described and we enjoyed the charming back yard and the cats roaming around. It also does feel like a very safe neighborhood, the bed was very comfortable and even though we had to wait for a bit, we were able to do laundry. I just wish it felt worth it for the price.
