My wife and I stayed at Eric and Tricia's apartment for 3 nights with our two sons aged 12 and 16 In August.
Checking in was easy and it was great having a parking space right outside the property. We also greatly appreciated having laundry facilities (always a bonus on a road trip).
We cooked for ourselves on 2 nights and the apartment was equipped with all the pans, utensils etc that we needed.
There is a bus stop within 2 minutes walk which connects to Old Town Station where you can catch other buses or the trolley into downtown San Diego.
Although we didn't see Eric and Tricia during our stay, they responded promptly and helpfully to our messages
