Look no further, THIS is where you want to stay! Brenden made check in easy, and even helped me with my bags. The space looks better than pictured and is crisp and clean. The kitchenette is adorable. I did make a couple of simple meals there, but there is really no need - this place is walking distance to great restaurants less than a block away. Walk another block and you are strolling down a picturesque beach town street with a selection of shopping, cute rental spots, yet more restaurants, plus a choice of drinking spots. If you do indulge, you can nurse your morning hangover at the little grocery shop down the road (they make excellent Sammies!) and have a selection of staples plus some pretty gourmet goods, too. Street parking obviously public, but I was able to park infront of the house all but twice, though I was in and out often. I felt very safe even when coming in pretty late, it's a great neighbourhood. If you have a car you are basically close to everything. During the right time of year, from this location, you can surf in the morning and snowboard after lunch. Mexico is less than 30 minutes away, too! The bed was very cozy and I had a hard time making myself get up in the mornings. Brenden gave us the space to relax yet was perfectly attentive. I really can't speak enough about how much I enjoyed talking with him and staying in this lovely space, he is indeed a SUPER host. He thought of everything. Wish I could move in permanently!
