Possitive Stuff:
This AirBNB is a great location. We stayed for 4 nights. Easy free parking and easy to get downtown. Grocery store and restaurants are 2 minutes drive away. The price is excellent for the features this comes with. The self check-in and check-out was quick and easy. The code for entrance was easy. The unit auto locks when you shut the door. The bed is comfortable. I like a firm bed and my wife likes a soft bed and we both slept well. This unit doesnt have air conditioning. Even though the weather in San Diego doesnt typically require air conditioning, the owner was very nice to install a portable unit for us. I'm very thankful that we had it. This unit doesnt get a lot of air flow even if there is a breeze outside. Thus, it's usually about 5 to 7 degrees warmer in the house compared to outside without the AC. There is a really nice iron that I used to steam my wrinkles out of my dress cloths. The shower head put out a lot of water which is refreshing. It also had plenty of hot water for 2 people.
Negatives:
When we arrived, we turned on the TV and it said there were no channels. We messaged the owner about the TV but they never responded. So we were stuck with no TV channels for our entire stay.
While ironing cloths we tripped a breaker which cause the units electricity to go out. It took about 4 hours for someone to come fix it since we didn't have access to the panel.
While taking a hot shower, the central Heat came on all by itself. I believe the central heat is controlled by the main house that this unit is attached to. It got very hot in the house and made me feel like I was going to pass out from the hot shower I took plus the heat being on. It ran for about 15 minutes and then turned off by itself. When I messaged the owner their response was "we installed a portable AC unit for you". This wasn't the response I was looking for. A portable AC unit is no match for central heat that you cant control.
FYI.. The cleaning fee does not include washing dishes. I didn't mind hand washing my own dishes, however I was concerned on how well the previous tenants washed the dishes. I wish the cleaning fee included a professional to wash the dishes.
The bed sheets had some hair on it. I dont know if this was due to over use or bad washing techniques.
The floor felt dirty. I wouldn't recommend walking barefoot in the unit. It was swept but really needs a good mopping.
The bathroom needs a deep cleaning. I can tell someone did clean it, but due to it being older, it could use a deep clean.
The bath towels are nice. They do smell like laundry which some people may like, but to me it says over use and may need to be replaced. However, they didn't look over worn.
There should be a night light in the bathroom. The light is fairly bright so doing your business in the middle of the night wakes you up. There is also no exhaust fan so a hot shower will steam up the bathroom significantly.
Conclusion:
I would stay here again. Mainly because of the location, kitchen and price.
