My husband and I spent a long weekend in San Diego for my birthday. We travel often and I have to say John's place was one of the best we've stayed in. He has done a great job providing many of the small comforts of home. He even provided some great tips on local attractions and was very quick to respond. You can't ask for a better location, just a few blocks from the beach and downtown OB, with easy access to some great bike paths. We rented a couple of scooters and rode them to Belmont Park and Old Town in minutes. All around great place to stay, we will be back!
