I chose this location so that I had a shorter trip to Universal and was hoping to get a good night sleep and obvioulsy the view was a plus. I didnt mind the fact that the gas was off so there was no hot water because that was previously discussed. What I didnt like was the lack of cleanliness and all the towels laying out on the bathtub. I woke up at 2 beacuse the power was off, which cut out TV and AC so it was hot and quiet. Couldnt keep door open because there wasnt a screen on it and there were birds on the deck. Tried to call and email/text owner but didnt have service because wifi was out with the power. So I spent the night walking around with flashlight on phone trying to find the issue. Had to wake up around 745 to get ready for universal. Not only was I exhausted but my phone was almost dead beacuse it couldnt be charged overnight. There was a beeping that coming from the refrigerator area thatwas super annoying. Basically I paid to be inconvenienced. The view was great, but when you choose a house with a deck near the ocean you rent it for privacy. Unfortunately you couldnt even relax without feeling like big bro is watching you from the cameras...then comes the icing on the cake, the house is non smoking which i can appreciate, but to have no smoking on the deck with door closed is ridiculous and cost me 400 extra dollars on my rental cause it was either smoking there or outside in the rain. Renting this was the biggest regret of my trip to San diego/Universal.
Also I understand that the power outage wasnt the owners fault, it was the guy who ran into the pole a block away.but there was no compensation or apology. Guess I should be happy it wasnt the car that got hit sinse you must park next to busy highway.
