Liked: Cleanliness
The property was very comfortable and well appointed. Having said that, if we needed anything, a call to Angelica would promptly take care of our request. It does not get better than that.The property's location at the top of a hill, with a fabulous view of the bay from a beautiful patio in a garden with a small fish pond was calming and outstanding. What a pleasant surprise that was.

A clean cottage, unusually well appointed with household conveniences. The location was ideal to see sights within Humboldt county. The setting was a plus, with huge views of the city and bay yet it was in a quiet corner of town.
