My kids and I loved staying at Patty's place! It looks just as pictured, and was clean, neat, and well stocked with linens, towels, and pillows (all fresh). We bought food for breakfast and lunch, and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare simple meals. Best of all, it was located a block from the beach and had boogie boards, bikes, beach chairs, and a surfboard for us to use. It looked like the rental was full, but we never had any trouble getting the play equipment we needed. Patty herself was a wonderful hostess; gave us a gift certificate to a restaurant nearby to try, oriented us to the neighborhood; and even pulled over and gave us a lift one day when she saw us waiting for the bus. The building was nice and quiet at night; I saw at least two other families with children there. We would definitely come back, and I highly recommend her rental for anyone who wants to stay near the beach in San Diego.
