I had a wonderful seven day stay with Caroline Henton . She was welcoming and gracious and remarkably helpful from even before I arrived . She called when I was late to arrive to find out if I needed help with directions (which I did) and provided better directions than map quest when I needed them.
The house is beautifully furnished and decorated with lots of beautiful plants and original art work.
My room was spacious with an adjacent large private bathroom. I had full use of the kitchen. The neighborhood in which the house is located is residential and so reasonably quiet. It is within five minutes by car from downtown and approximately ten minutes fro the beach.

Caroline went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. When I commented that I left my yoga mat at home she provided me with one. When I was short of salad dressing, on more than one occasion, she provided me with her own. These are just a coupe of examples of her thoughtfulness.

I expect to be back in Santa Cruz and I hope her place will be availble when I return.
