Jing is the perfect host. Someone you always hope you get on Airbnb (but rarely do): someone on site, easy to reach, who is concerned that everything is right for you and your visit while on their property. She was not intrusive but made sure we knew that she was there if we needed anything. The property itself was exquisite! And the location could not be better. The swimming pool is the first thing you see, and it was complete with lounge chairs, pillows, and towels! The patio also contains a table with an umbrella for having coffee or cocktails by the pool, and it overlooks the massive, wooded area below (near Balboa Park.) The kitchen is to die for, with the latest stainless steel appliances, coffee maker, and lots of pots and pans. The bathroom is marble and slate with a wonderful shower - all a good size. All new. All sparkling.
There is one large bedroom with a window, ceiling fan, and plenty of storage area (including a small desk). The lovely couch in the living room pulls out into a soft sofa bed. I didn’t want to leave! And our kind, generous, and welcoming host even offered us snacks and water for our car trip up to the central coast!
I pinched myself for having the luck to discover this wonderful house and owner, and I hope to return again and again.
