Had a good time staying here. A lot of spider webs and such but it was still enjoyable!

So glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay here in Kensington. Sorry if the nature aspect was too much for you we know webs can be a bother. But we are in a lush part of the East Bay on the edge of a creek, so we do get insects over the Summer!
