Everything was very nice. Would be great if set up allowed for relaxing in main room without having to move couch to watch TV
8 / 10Excellent·Dec 2025
The place was great. My girlfriend and I loved it. It was relatively clean however there are a few things I’d like to mention as suggestions for future improvements.1. The fridge was set to 47 degrees which is much too low. Typically a refrigerator should be set to at minimum 37 degrees to ensure food safety. I had to turn it down and set it myself. Not an issue by any means just a suggestion. 2. The floors were clean from first glance but once I checked underneath the beds I saw that they had not been cleaned in quite some time. There was even a sock from someone who stays there prior underneath the bed to the left of the half bathroom. 3. The dishwasher is missing an entire left wheel assembly. When attempting to roll out the bottom rack it falls due to the missing parts. 4. The shower head is in an odd position, when you use the secondary nozzle it sprays directly at the glass siding and due to the incomplete caulking on the bottom seal the water tends to leak out into the floor. 5. I attempted to use some glassware, however the Pyrex glassware was not only dirty it smelled as if it had not been cleaned at all. I would absolutely stay here again. The host was helpful and respected our privacy.

Great location to venture out in your car to explore the many surrounding sites - Redwoods state park so very close by, and Santa Cruz and Capitola beaches within 30 min drive. It would have been nice to know if there were any hiking trails that we could access without getting in the car. Also, a couple of us had to work during the stay, and for those the furniture was a little lacking. No indoor dining room table to work from was a little challenging, but the wifi was good and strong so that was a plus. The kitchen appliances and supplies were outstanding, and thank you for the ample supply of spices, cooking oils, tea and coffee... wonderful!
