After a last minute cancellation by an Airbnb competitor, we found Rita's place and could not have been happier. Check-in was seemless, the neighborhood was quiet with a grocery store and restaurants within walking distance, and the building is safe and secure. The unit is on the ground floor facing the freeway, but because it's on first floor you can't see the traffic. Vehicle noise wasn't an issue for us. There is a grassy area outside window to look at. The apartment was clean with most everything we needed (no toaster, no coffee). There is a wall of windows and the bedroom is in a second floor open loft, so you get lots of light. Bring a sleep mask if that would bother you. Would rent again. Really appreciate the kindness and hospitality.
