Don't hesitate!- if you are considering booking Brian's home, do it - you will not be disappointed. It was convenient to everything we wanted to do (hiking, beaches, Balboa park, etc). The unit was well stocked with so many thought through extras from spices to board games to plenty of towels. The backyard was truly as wonderful as the pictures depict - we opted for the heated pool and spent a lot of time enjoying the pool and hot tub. We would not hesitate to stay here again. Thanks to Brian for a great experience!
