What a wonderful time I've had here at Maria's. She is so welcoming and kind. She helped bring my bags in, oriented me to her lovely home, and still left me lots of personal time alone. Moe (her dog) and Buttons (her cat) were both great to be around. Friendly but not intrusive. The room is even better than it looks on line. Smell of jasmine wafting in my window and song birds to wake my in the morning. Not to mention the pot of fresh coffee waiting in the kitchen each morning. I definitely recommend staying here, and will come back if you all don't read this review and book it up solid!! Great location, great hostess, wonderfully quiet and walkable neighborhood. All is great.
