It also had the cutest shopping area on the other side of the train that met all our needs. The room apartment was spacious and clean, and even had a tub which I didn’t realize was so rare in California lol!

"This is a nice property, clean and cozy. It does have 3 bedrooms but I will say that it is a very compact house. There is only one parking spot and it was tight for our Ford Explorer, there is street parking but it fills up fast. We had some difficulty finding it in the dark, it was also raining heavily which made it more challenging. The owner was very responsive and very helpful. Overall, We would give it a 9 out of 10, only because of the parking but I really don't think that much can be...
