The value on this Airbnb couldn’t be beat! It was such an affordable find for a clean, safe, and cozy stay. It is right off highway 5, close to a gas station and Costco, and in a very central location for getting downtown, UCSD, or one of the local beach towns.
Mimi responds to messages instantaneously and the entire process was completely hassle free - the studio is located on the side of their home so someone was always around if we needed anything or available for questions. We ran into her husband a few times and he was very hospitable, friendly, and welcoming.
The only thing to note is that there is construction going on across the street and some hammering woke us up at 7 AM, but I don’t see this being a long term issue. They also have children who like to play in the yard very early in the morning, which also woke us up, but I think Mimi and her husband asked them to come inside so they wouldn’t disturb us. Very respectful! They also have a very friendly and sweet dog who greeted us at our car and was often seen around the property.
