The two greeted me at arrival which was a nice change from the absentee-style AIR BNB hosts more common in San Diego. Their warm welcome made the experience far more human, something simple that made my stay at their places more comfortable - it’s odd when the air bnb host has zero presence, other than their pre-scheduled messages sent during the stay.
The building is brand new, a nice change from the 100+ year old building I lived in up the block. Prices were very fair, no Verizon service in the unit but the WiFi worked perfect. Small unit, my service dog and I had plenty of room.
I’ve yet to reach out after my stay but want to advise future guests of the $25 a day cleaning fee per ‘pet’.. Not sure why the cleaning fee was a per day thing since there was no cleaning each day. I should’ve reached out before booking, and the hosts seemed kind enough to chat about their reasoning and my thoughts in the future.
Ps: the complaints about the transients and noise aren’t much to worry about, while I knew what to expect regarding the local issues out of the hosts control (construction, homelessness, weekend bar crowds) there’s a gate with a code and a locked garage; very safe.
