Very clean room and property overall. The area is nice, there’s a Safeway grocery store about a 10-15 minute walk from the property and plenty of restaurants and coffee shops across the street. Lots of parking for guests and overall peaceful. If you get a downstairs room you can hear the people above moving around, so if you’re a light sleeper I suggest getting a 2nd floor room. Fridge and microwave were a nice bonus. Owner is very nice.
