We stayed one night with Brian for our anniversary and to visit Sea World for the first time; but we've been to San Diego before and Brian's place is not too far from most of the main spots in town. The house was easy to locate, instructions were clearly laid out, and the place was clean and comfortable. Brian emailed us a few days before and the morning of our arrival to clarify details, which helped a lot. He has a very nice kitchen, well stocked with pots & pans & coffee maker, and he allowed us to make our own breakfast in the morning, which definitely saved us money on our trip. The hot tub is a great perk, as well as the pre-loaded Netflix/Hulu on all the TVs. The only snag we hit was forgetting our fan for white noise - it's a fairly quiet house and neighborhood, and we're used to having the white noise for sleeping. Also we probably used a lot of TP because there was no Kleenex. Other than that, it felt like we were in a comfortable home away from home. We highly recommend Brian's place for anyone visiting San Diego, and we'll definitely consider staying there again when we visit next time.
