We had a warm welcome with gift bags of snacks, a pink Christmas tree, and even 3 stockings (there were 3 of us) during Christmas! The house was extremely clean and it was nice being able to sit in the backyard in the sun, drinking coffee etc. The couches are super comfy and we liked the huge TV. All around it was great and I would go back. It is only a few minutes away from my parents' house where I grew up, so I didn't really need any tips or advice from Raul, but he seemed friendly & available enough to give tips had I asked, and cool enough to just let us be since we didn't really need anything local-ish. There was a binder with house rules tips etc on the coffee table. Also this is more about the street, but anyone we saw was friendly! And it cracked me up that there were both Biden and Trump signs along the block, so it seems like there is neighborly friendliness even with political differences. Love it!
