What a great place. Although I didn't get to meet Michael his house is amazing. The room is small as described but was perfect. Clean, cosy has everything I needed. The kitchen I the house is supplied with many things he's happy for you to use and the other guests I met were lovely too. Everybody respects the rules which makes it a pleasant place to stay. Yes you can hear the noises of the planes but they're not very frequent and kind of soothing. It's within easy walking distance of little Italy and the waterfront. And even though you have to walk under the underpass i didn't feel unsafe by myself at night.
When I come back to San Diego (and I will) I'll definitely return here.
Thanks for making my first air bnb a pleasant one
