Summary: this is the best AirBnB experience I’ve ever had.
The host: Jane is a truly beautiful soul whose artistic skills are integrated into every part of the space. She was beyond friendly and is very good at hosting, despite starting fairly recently. As a retired professional host myself, I understand how much work and energy went into perfectly curating the space.
The neighborhood: Very charming houses, large yards and mature trees. Under 5 minutes to the closest coffee shop, grocery stores and freeway access. 15 minutes to downtown.
The cottage: In my opinion, it’s just the right size. Not too big so that it’s a chore to keep clean during your stay but big enough that you don’t feel cramped. I stayed there with my puppy and we had room to live comfortably. Every thinkable amenity is offered and the space is even more stylish than it looks in the photos. Pro tip: start the air conditioning up for about 5 minutes and then switch to fan. The space cools down quickly. Another pro tip: both the microwave and oven run hotter than you’re probably used to. I never cooked anything in the micro for more than 1 minute. The little private side patio was a great touch of privacy.
I’ve stayed in dozens and dozens of units over the years and have never enjoyed a stay more because of the ideal location and housing quality, but primarily because Jane is such a beautiful and welcoming person.
You should definitely book it!!
