Room/studio was perfect. Walking distance to the beach, hiking trail, some shops and eateries.
Room was clean and the overall atmosphere is one of like visiting family and staying in the guest room. Towels were super soft and bedding was clean and bed was super comfortable.
Laura and her family do live in the house and they have 2 dogs, I unfortunately didn't get to meet, so there's some noise. Nothing crazy but it's not eerily quiet, if that's what you want. She has awesome binder with some rules/local laws, suggestions on food, info such as wifi password etc. which is very helpful.
Overall, very pleased and would definitely stay there again. I believe she also has a unit at Lake Tahoe and we might book that one as well.
