This location was great for me and my dogs as it is a short walk to Dog Beach - and as well a short drive to Fiesta Island and Kate Sessions Park. There was within the same block two great little coffee kiosks that also make nice breakfast food. A few blocks walk to Breakfast Republic and some other great places to eat. There is a really upscale 5* Bistro right next door, if you want to have a really good quality meal when visiting. Cottage was very quiet and also had convenient laundry. There is a very pretty small outdoor garden area for Dogs to pee etc in the morning and late at night. Cute courtyard with Avocado and Lemon Trees. Mostly I found street parking right in front but there is also a free parking lot in the alley. Parking was great - no issues. Kitchen was great, I shopped at Trader Joes in PB and made most of my meals.
