The apartment was very clean and well appointed. One of my biggest gripes with renting an apartment is the pillows, there are never enough and they are always garbage. Well, not here! There were several pillows on each bed and they were actually nice pillows, imagine my delight!! The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed. The location is so great. It's so close to San Francisco - a very easy 20 min drive, and jsut a couple of steps to the beach. There is also a great hike within walking distance. Communication with the host was impeccable. I had a couple of questions which were answered immediately and when they went away for the weekend they let me know in advance and gave me an alternate number to call if I needed anything at all. The washer and dryer were a huge plus as we had been traveling for almost a week when we arrived and had laundry to be done. Highly recommend this spot for location, cleanliness, host communication, the great pillows, and how well appointed the unit is.
