Long weekend stay
The house was perfect for us! We were visiting our son & daughter-in-law who live within walking distance. Plenty of room for just the two of us! We didn't spend much time int the house, but the bed was comfy and the coffee maker worked! Which are two necessities for me.
One little tiny glitch... I think the listing had a hair dryer as an amenity, and I did not see one.

The house is located in a good place and quiet neighborhood. It is roomy, quirky, & delightfully decorated. The beds are very comfortable. There is access to a sizable, private backyard, with yard furniture available.
The house was clean on the surface, but is in need of a deep clean process. Kristina was very responsive to my questions and offered some good ideas of places to explore. With that said, there are also repairs that are badly in need. One of the doors does not have a working lock and the window to the door is literally taped in place. Propped against the bottom of the door are 2 10# free weights which it appears is intended to deter any attempt to enter the house. There is a hole in one of the panes of glass in the front room picture window (it is a double pane window) and some windows are lacking curtains. There is very low (trickle like) pressure in one of the bathroom sinks. Despite this property being “no pets allowed” there appears to be a significant amount of pet hair on some of the furniture.

Quiet, lovely visit in optimal location for activities
House was charming. Host was amazing - she went above and beyond, even stocking some breakfast foods when she learned we were coming in late at night so we wouldn't have to shop between the airport and the house. Perfect house to relax and enjoy sunny California!
