If you are a solo traveler and looking for a central location, seriously, stop looking. You will need a rental car to get to and from places in town, but so worth it. I was able to park directly in front of the house every day and it is a very safe neighborhood. There is a Sprouts grocery store about a block and a half away. It's also very close to Tecolote Canyon trail, which is a shorter dessert hike. The pool house has a lovely day bed with a trundle. The top mattress was comphy for me and I'm 5'9. The shower was amazing and made you feel like you were in an exotic location in Hawaii with the sunlight ceiling and decorative rocks at the basin. Violet and Bill were great hosts and even provided goodies at checkout on my fourth morning.
