We stayed with Kathleen for 5 weeks for a work trip and were very happy with the experience. The location was perfect, both in terms of being close to La Jolla Village and the beach and also our office. I ended up running to work on most days, which was great. Kathleen was exceptionally welcoming and kind, looking after all our needs and more throughout the stay. We had free access to a bicycle, which I also ended up taking with us on our trip to the Grand Canyon. She went out of her way to make us feel welcome, cooking meals, sharing local tips, etc. We also had all the privacy we needed when we wanted, but she and her family were around and always ready to have a chat and answer questions.
