The house was perfect for our needs; really close to San Diego Zoo and other attractions. The grocery stores are just a few blocks away; there's even an urgent care close by. The house itself is cozy and the beds are very comfortable. The gate leading to the front yard was unlocked, so we had access to it. My husband thought the gate was locked, but I inspected it and it wasn't. I was surprised that there was a rice cooker, so that was a plus. Bring oil if you're planning on cooking.
