We had a great time in San Diego, the little "cottage" is placed in the backyard. We could not meet Christine, but everything was ready for our arrival, the bed was comfortable and there was a little fridge and a microwave , mugs and almost everything you can need for breakfast. Everything was clean. The neighborhood is quite and nice, and there are some nice pubs and good restaurant. We suggest to get at Christine's place if you have a car, however there are also busses that take you to downtown.
