My stay at Lauren's place was everything I was hoping it would be. It's located near the end of a residential street, so the loudest sounds were neighborhood kids playing and the birds outside. Everything was clean and well designed. There wasn't any air conditioning, but thanks to the constant breezes from the ocean the temperature inside was never hot. The beach is just a 10 minute walk away, and I enjoyed plenty of trips walking down to hang out, go for a swim, or walk along the long stretch of soft sand. Lauren was also a very kind host, quick to respond to any of my questions or to help with something like a burned out light bulb in the bathroom.
