My friend and I booked this place for a night as we had plans to go to Gaslamp for my birthday. As we drove up to Erika’s place we both couldn’t help but notice the surrounding neighborhood seemed unsafe. Luckily, we were able to park the car in the driveways which brought us both some comfort. (We both took everything out of the car just to be safe). When you walk up to the cottage you have to go through a side gate and walk past a camper and the main home. The walk way up to the cottage is technically her backyard and smelled like cat or dog poop (which was not the nicest welcoming). The cottage itself was decorated nicely and was clean. The only downfall is there is no AC. So we had to point fans on ourselves while getting ready to go out for the night. Overall, it was ok for a one night stay…however, I would’ve rather paid a little more and stayed at a hotel.
