First, the good. This is a nice half of a duplex. The interior is very roomy and nicely furnished. It has a nice little kitchen which is very modern and well equipped, lacking only an oven - which we would not have used had there been one. The other half of the duplex was occupied during part of our stay but the only way we knew that is because we saw their auto and saw them coming and going. We never heard a sound from them.We arrived the first day of spring and the weather was lovely. We wanted to throw open all the windows and let the breeze blow through but...... all but one of the windows (all of which badly need washing) either had no window screen or had plastic "storm windows." Although everything appeared clean, my spouse commented that it would benefit from a "deep cleaning." To be clear, this would NOT keep us from staying there again. The host was very accommodating and allowed us to check in a couple hours early. She also responded very quickly when we needed help with the TV. Despite our quibbles, we recommend this highly; a lovely space to spend time in Borrego Springs.
