The area receives strong Wi-Fi. Diwn the hallway, a guest will discover my Catacombs Library consisting of over 800+ out-of-print or unusual titles that are available for purchase. Guests in the Franciscan cellar can access a mini-refrigerator, an induction cooker, and a mini-oven. Ample paper plates and plastic utensils will be provided. Filtered water and iron & board available on request. If guest and host scheduling permits, the host will offer an omelet, French Toast, buttermilk pancakes for breakfast or bread pudding. The guest can eat al fresco (outside) on the covered porch or in their room. Guests have the choice of fresh brewed or espresso or tea.

Guest access
Guests will have access to the back covered patio in the summer time which has a gas grill. The back yard is constantly blooming from March until September beginning with daffodils and ending with hostas and roses. The fully landscaped backyard serves as an oasis from the busyness of city life. Guests in the Franciscan cellar have a private entrance through the back garden gate. Parking i available on street adjacent to home.

There is a separation between the upstairs guests and downstairs guests and intermingling is not encouraged. However, the guests residing downstairs may access the upstairs kitchen to wash out a pot/dish since no dedicated kitchen sink is available downstairs. Downstairs guests have easy access to the Catacombs Library.

This is a 1913 Craftsman home. With its age, the noise from upstairs water usage will be noticeable. The air vents readily carry sound. However, quiet hours run from 9 PM to 5 AM. Extra heaters are provided for each downstairs accommodation.

Other things to note
The stair way (ten steps) is steep. One side has a railing. Please note the parking spaces provided along Florida Street (for both the Pilgrim's Couch and Franciscan Cellar). The Pilgrim's Couch room has been converted into the Library. The code to access the key pad will be issued to guests about a week before their scheduled arrival. Wi-Fi information is provided in each room.

City regulations require the responsible guest to provide government ID, permanent address, and phone number for the host. Information will treated confidentially. If this information is not provided, the booking will be canceled and money not refunded.

While I do permit alcohol on the premises, I ask that guests inform me when they check-in and consume adult beverages responsibly. Marijuana consumption is prohibited. Cigar/cigarette smoking is allowed in the porch area. Just ask host for an ash tray.
