My experience was great! I was staying in capitola while working nearby. The place is super cute, clean and well maintained. Easy walking distance to the village and beach. Really loved the neighborhood. Yes, parking can be challenging, but I'm used to limited parking where I live, so it was no big deal. Hosts gave me a heads up before I arrived and gave me a few suggestions for alternative parking if I needed it.
The hosts were extremely responsive and quick to help when I was unable to open the lock box (my fault, not theirs). And! When I accidentally left some personal belongings after check out, they personally went over to the house, retrieved it and stored it until my friend could pick it up. Such a life saver!
