The pictures do not do this place justice! I mean, the photos are great, but this is a real gem. I lived 10 years in San Diego and was discovering all kinds of gems in this neighborhood.
The house itself is beautiful -- historic but with modern finishes (lots of tasteful gold). The rooms are spacious and all have air conditioning. The front yard had a regal feel where the kids loved to play and hang out with all of the games (pool, ping pong, etc.)
Every day was a struggle figuring out whether to hang in our comfortable space or go out to one of the many restaurants that you could walk to.
Rick was a great host. He accommodated us and was responsive and pro-active during our stay. I would love to come back to this place.
