I felt like Thomas was a friend before we even met. He is a very warm and genuine person who makes you feel like you are at home and not just a guest. The photos and description of the room are exactly as you see. I slept very comfortably and awoke to birds chirping in the mornings. Everything is spotless and the home is very nicely furnished. I just wish I could have spent more time on the deck outside my room but I was too busy sightseeing! The location makes you feel as though you are far away from the hustle and bustle of the city while still being relatively close to everything. Cool bars and restaurants are a short walk (or bike ride) away. The popular San Diego attractions are a short drive away. Thomas was always available to give advice on things to do and places to see in San Diego. My one regret is that I didn't stay longer. I hope to be able to visit the city again and thank Thomas for allowing me to share his lovely home for a couple of days.
