Warm, welcoming, homey feel. Though the street is noisy, it does quiet down at night. We were in San Diego for Marine boot camp graduation and ended up taking back streets to the base which was perfect. Though the neighborhood was questionable, the benefits at the house outweighed them all. The auto locking doors gave me a sense of extra security as well. I totally recommend and would definitely come back to this location for future travel. Thank you John. I loved it!
