Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Gabriel was a wonderful and responsive host. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The kitchen was set up enough for us to cook our meals and just fix a quick lunch. The beds were amazingly comfortable. We slept so good on them and the pillows. We loved the balcony upstairs with the ever changing view. That was our favorite place. The house is close to grocery stores and plenty of sodas and restaurants. It is about 14 miles/25-30 minutes to Fortuna and close to many excursions. There are even a couple on the same road as the house. If you come here, you will be very pleased with the accommodations.
