Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
Host was nice and was responsive to my messages. But house could use more thorough cleaning, had to ask for more blankets to be comfortable (there was 2x more pillows than blankets in the house). Very good price, no major issues with the property.Floors could use a good mopping.
Nice quiet home with a quaint cottagey feel. The kitchen was dated but well stocked with everything we needed. Our kids enjoyed the yard and playing with the cats out the back. Convenient location to Monterrey and Carmel, there's a big playground a blocks walk away too.
Overall not a bad stay. Perfect for a 1 night stay for 4 adults. Minor quibble, description lists parking included and the driveway was filled with cars.
Perfect place to stay in Salinas- the house is well supplied to cook and it is 15 minutes walking distance to downtown. Jaimee is responsive and happy to help.
Pretty little postcard yard and the space was comfortable enough for the two kids and 3 adults in my group. Everything worked well and nice large refrigerator in the kitchen. Single bathroom was a bit of a challenge for us because we all live in multiple bathroom spaces, but plenty of hot water for bathing and dishes.
Was a very cute little house felt cozy , we stayed 4 days and had a great time! The host always responded within an hour to any questions and left the place very clean for us . We stayed here to visit Monterey and the redwoods and it was easy to get places only about an hour to the redwoods and a half hour to Monterey we did need the local bus.a couple times and it was a short walk to the transit center so just a great location to use as like a jumping off point for all sorts of adventures would definitely stay again or recommend to friends/family
Hand soap in bathroom was empty, no wash cloths were available for bathing. Front entry was quirky and hard to use at times. Back yard was very nice. No closet in either bedroom.
Great little cozy home close to many things to do.
This home was perfect for our family of five. The home was cozy and very pleasant. Home had all we needed TV with many streaming apps. Living room was welcoming for our family to spend some time together. We were even able to cook a small Thanksgiving dinner while we stayed there. The house was 20 minutes from Moss Landing, 30 minutes to the Aquarium of Monterey Bay. And 5 minutes from a Movie theater. Overall we would definitely recommended to others. This home is small but very welcoming.
