We enjoyed our stay. We appreciated the yard and that the rental is pet friendly. The hosts are very accommodating and responsive to messages. I definitely recommend for short or long term renters.

very clean, comfortable place to stay.

The unit is one of a four-plex located in the back, off the street. It was clean and comfortable, and the safari theme was fun (though not overwhelming). The neighborhood is mixed-use (some residential, some business), and has a bit of an industrial feel. It is close the freeway, but quiet.
