Upon arriving our host, Jill, was there to give us keys and a quick tour. Jill made us feel welcome and assured us if we needed anything, just let her know.There was an issue connecting to the wi-fi and cable and Jill was on it right away. The issue was quickly resolved. Yay! The house is lovely, exactly as described! It is a charming spanish home, beautiful back deck, perfect for meals or lounging. The kitchen is big, upgraded, and fully equipped. We cooked most of our meals so we really appreciated the kitchen. The bedrooms look just like the photos. There was plenty of room for the 6 of us. The bathroom downstairs has a separate tub and shower. The shower is small, but has good water pressure. I think Jill listed that there isn't air conditioning, but she does have a couple of portable a/c units and plenty of fans as well as ceiling fans. We were fine with just the fans.
The neighborhood is amazing. Beautiful homes, diverse, cute little shops, safe, etc. It's totally walkable, we went for walks every morning and some evenings and felt completely safe. What was also amazing is how friendly people are. Everyone we came across on our walks spoke. Loved it. The location was also perfect for us, we could not have been happier. Jill was great, the house, neighborhood, and location were great. This was truly a wonderful experience. Thanks Jill.
