I enjoyed my stay with Maurine! She was very responsive and accommodating for an early arrival. The property is located on a major road, just a block away from the 101 highway on-ramp - the downside being traffic noise and a busy street, upside being very convenient for traveling. Street parking was fine for me actually though there's a 2 hour limit during the day. I was a bit uncertain about the shared bathroom situation, but it was totally fine - even though there was another guest staying in another room in the house. There weren't locks to the room or the bathroom, but I felt perfectly comfortable without them. Though I only had the opportunity to connect with Maurine once during my stay, her demeanor made her house feel very homey and comfortable.
