We were incredibly excited to book this place to celebrate my birthday in San Diego for 2 days. Upon arrival, check-in was very easy. However, the AC was not working and the entire house was almost humid due to the intense heat of the summer. When we attempted to make dinner in the kitchen late at night, it became so hot that the fire alarm went off and it took us a few minutes to turn it off. Consequently, we had the firefighters come to check on us but we explained what happened. The Hosts were not respectful in communicating the consequences of the fire alarm/noise complaint from this and did not ask if we were okay. When the hosts told us that maintenance would be fixing the AC the following morning, we were told to be present to let them inside. Unfortunately, this pushed our entire schedule back a few hours. Given that we were only there for one full day, it was incredibly stressful for all of our following group activities and reservations that either had to be pushed back or canceled. We also felt slightly uncomfortable knowing that maintenance was going around the house counting my guests and reporting back what we had brought to the Hosts (and they were not wearing masks). This, along with many broken utilities that were not fixed prior to our stay was disappointing. While this had no impact on the review - we also felt unwelcomed in the neighborhood when a specific neighbor would come to the front of his house and continuously stare at us each time we parked on the street noticeably sighing when we would exit the vehicle. We do, however, admit we were in the wrong for bringing more than 7 guests and have apologized to the Hosts. Our additional 3 guests did cost us additional fees that were DOUBLE the cost of the actual total booking which was very unexpected. We were unaware of the extent of these fees for this and it was 100% our mistake for not asking. We regret booking this place and wish we had checked out the neighborhood beforehand. Although I did not get to fully enjoy my birthday given the stress from this booking, I did have many highlights in the city.
