Lori and Steve were fabulous hosts! The place is as described- so cozy and colorful. And full of character! We loved the animals- relaxing after a long day in the city on the king size bed with the windows open and a breeze, to the sound of the chickens softly clucking away... made it feel so homey. Everything that we needed was provided... and more- they even set out breakfast items- oatmeal, coffee, tea and fresh eggs from the chickens in the fridge. Although we never ended up using them, it was nice touch. Both Lori and her husband are very communicative and quick to respond with any questions you may have-- for example, they gave a great list of hiking recommendations before we arrived as my bf and I like to hike --and very accommodating to any special requests (they kindly held our luggage for us after check out while we explored on our last day in the city). The location is also great-- you can walk to Fern Street where there are lots of restaurants and bars. It's also a quick walk to a Target Express in case you forgot to pack something! Close to Balboa park/ the Zoo and a ton of museums. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone!
