This was my second stay at Rachel's place and it was even better than the first. Rachel thinks of everything, from the maps, and information packets to the rain gear (which I had to borrow). The location is great, close to public transportation, the beach, restaurants and grocery stores. The small room is very cozy with a beautiful window overlooking a lush side yard with beautiful flowers and plants framing the outside ledges. I used public transportation to get to any of my destinations, and the dogs made my stay even friendlier.
