Dianne's place was just lovely. Huge. Very clean, well equipped. Dianne was easy to communicate with via email and airbnb site. The only slightly negative thing about this apartment is the location. The location is great for walking to beach (15 min) and for walking to restaurants and shopping (10 min). The only bad thing is the location is in the south part of downtown which has pockets of sketchy areas. To walk to downtown on the main street you have to walk through a not so nice part of town (aggressive homeless, urine smells, drug use) but it's only two blocks and you can stay on Cedar instead of Pacific to mostly avoid it. We felt safe inside the apartment. And the apartment was lovely.
