Good stay in a cute town
Three brothers on a wine and hiking tour. Petaluma was in the middle of four of our destinations, so the area was right. The price was right. The stay was a comfortable no-frills option in Petaluma. House was clean. Owner was very responsive to our one need (coffee grinder). We basically spent the late evening and slept in the home. Therefore, it met all our needs. Two of us had to do a little work-related stuff, and we did stream a couple movies while we were there. The WiFi is very slow. I’d say that was the only criticism of the place. Check in and checkout was a breeze. Not like other places where I e had to strip the bed linens and place towels, etc. in the tub. Very easy.

Great option right near downtown Petaluma!
I booked this VRBO for my international friends who were coming out of town to attend my wedding. The space was perfect for them. It had an abundance of towels, linens, was perfectly clean, and there was a nice welcome note & snack. Frank, the host, was extremely accommodating. The girls all felt comfortable & safe, and we enjoyed its proximity to downtown Petaluma and St. Vincent’s Catholic Church. I would 100% recommend this spot for folks coming in from out of town ESPECIALLY if you don’t have access to a car. There is so much close by and the neighborhood is stunning.

Clean and close to downtown
We had a great time in Petaluma and this unit was very nice. Unfortunately, it was extremely warm (100-103 degrees) and this unit is upstairs in an older home. There were two floor standing a/c units but they didn’t keep up with the heat at all. We couldn’t stay there during the afternoon. Fortunately, the nights were cool so sleeping was not a problem. I’m told that kind of heat was way out of the ordinary for Sonoma Valley.

Quaint
We arrived a bit late and the lights on the porch were left on for us. I had communicated that it would be dark. Its an old victorian that had been converted into the upstairs being a nice space. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a TV room. It was a very hot week. It has two window vented type AAc units tat had a hard time dealing with the heat. Luckily Petaluma tends to col off well during the night. I lived in an old victorian in my 20's so it was very nestalgic for me. The kitchen is nice and has the basic kitchen equiptment. The host left a treat for us and that was such a sweet gesture. Laundry is on site just not in the area we stayaed. Host was available and helpful when I asked a question. I would recommend this place to others. I would stay again if we come back to California. They was also beach chairs under the stairs as well as a closet of books and some games. I only wish the master bedroom had some blinds or black out curtains. It is in a very nice neighborhood close to downtown Petaluma and the smart train.

Pleasant saty in the heart of Petaluma
Great location few blocks from Petaluma downtown, very convenient and charing area of victorian, tree lined houses. The place had everything as described with 2 full beds & bath. This is an old house so the layout is going to reflect it (no open floorplan, stairs to the quarters and very small living room). The host was very responsive and transparent.

Super convenient
Super convenient location in a lovely quiet neighborhood. Frank made check in and check out incredibly easy. Comfortable stay for myself, my husband and our two boys. Walking distance to a nice playground. A more ambitious walk to town with a 3yo but for older folks a nice stroll to downtown. We would 100% book it again.

This was the perfect place to stay in Petaluma. The home was SPOTLESS, the beds and linens were super comfortable, and the walkability to restaurants, shops, wineries in Petaluma was great! Frank was quick to respond to our questions and friendly. We couldn't have had a better stay! Leslie, September 2023

Nice Spot
Frank did a great job preparing the space for our arrival. It was very clean and had everything we needed. Although because it was a second story apartment/condo, it was a little hot when we arrived. But he had two portable air conditioning units and fans that we used that brought the temperature in our bedroom down considerably. The only thing we should have noted that wasn't present was a washer and dryer. Again, we should have notice this in the listing so our fault. If you need a washer and dryer on site, you might want to view other properties. The location was great. Quiet and respectful street. Enjoyed our stay. Thanks Frank!

Excellent location for walk access to downtown, 1/2 mile walk.
Enjoyed our stay except for the stairs. Bath linens could be better; more like what one would find at a Motel 6, Host response was great when needed.
