Margo makes you want to visit San Diego again. Her home is clean and inviting. She provides what you need for a comfortable stay and always seems to be around to answer questions while not being intrusive. I often had the place to myself.

This was not my first time staying here though it was my first time in the larger bedroom. It was worth the extra money and I'll stay there again. The bedroom is simply beautiful. It is well furnished with a tropical feel and most importantly the bed is comfortable and clean. This bedroom is away from the street and shaded from the sun. It's quiet and relaxing.

The house offers something for wherever your mood leads you. The front porch is inviting and shaded like an old southern home. It makes you want to drink a sweet tea and take a nap. The back patio is private and perfect for hanging out, entertaining, or relaxing. She's got a fantastic outdoor kitchen (which I didn't use, but it made me want to make a burger on the grill) and the whole space is lighted at night so you think you have taken a step back to a time and place far less hectic.

When I stayed she had a full house with a couple staying in the smaller bedroom she also rents on AirBnB. There is plenty of room in the house and Margo has thought of everything you will need. The overlap of lives with other strangers does not feel intrusive. It's comfortable.

The shared bathroom worked well. I had a private entrance to the bath, which is nice. It is recently updated with top quality materials. It's very important to me that a place 'feel' clean and this one does not disappoint.

The neighborhood is a constant source of entertainment. It's a walking neighborhood filled with restaurants, stores and a very nice park. I found good Mexican food at Benny's. A great burger is up the street at The Station. And I found a good breakfast at the golf course restaurant, Toby's, a couple blocks away. If you like the food truck experience, they seem to collect in a parking lot a couple blocks away. I always eat out and never had any difficulty finding something to eat close by.

While I'm not a dog owner (or fan) her pets are entertaining and grow on you quickly. Natasha loves to play tug a war and Jack has this old soul look to him that makes you wonder what he's thinking.

Overall, this was an excellent experience and a great alternative to hotel living. I would recommend Margo's place to anyone. Be prepared to take off your shoes and relax.
