The house is located in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood and so close to balboa park and the zoo. This is what we found most attractive. It’s pretty clean (although we did notice used dental floss on the floor and the check in process was simple).
However, there are a few things that we found a bit disappointing. First, the check in-out instruction is VERY long (there are 10 steps for checking out) and I found it a bit of a over kill. The owner’s request that shoes off on the rugs seems unreasonable. Please note that there is NO dish washer in the house. Also for a two bedroom house, the dinning area is very small which can probably only fit two people.
When we got there, the owner was fixing the roof, so we were unable to use the table and swing outside—they were covered in debris. Also, even though there is a fire pit outside but you will need to bring your own wood ( at least we didn’t find any lying around for guests to use). So again, it’s basically useless.
Other than that, the rest of our stay was quite nice.
