Gerard from the very beginning was very welcoming and nice. His guidelines are simple to follow, have a great time and respect his home the way you’d want anyone to respect your own. The place was exceptionally clean, he was very genuine in wanting our stay to be amazing, and thus it was that and more.. I love the fact his home was unplugged, it allowed us to chit chat, and catch up on life. Remember this new generation communicates through technology, however I loved this! We were able to continue bonding. This was one for the books! He gave us great suggestions for things to do in the area, we went to La Jolla Cove and spent an amazing day there seeing the sea lions and seals and pretty much having the time of our lives. The welcoming baskets in each room was so thoughtful. Thank you so much for your hospitality.
