Matt's house was a great place to stay for our San Diego vacation. It is family friendly with a cute little nursery and a great back (shared) yard for the kids to play in. There is plenty of room for kids and parents to have spread out and for parents to have privacy and space to themselves after the kiddos are asleep, which is something you won't get from hotel room! The house is beautifully remodeled and in a cool part of town, walking distance to coffee shops, a grocery store and restaurants. The kitchen is well-stocked and great for cooking in with its ample counter space, chef's stove and farm sink.

Matt was a good communicator and very available to respond to any concern we had. We ran into a few snags while staying there (caused by a rowdy, messy group that had rented the place before us)--I communicated these issues to Matt and he addressed them promptly and courteously.

You should know that this place is on a property that has multiple long-term renters (a very nice family in an in-law unit in back and a very quiet female renter in the unit above the house). The renters were very quiet and kept to themselves so they were no bother to us, but if you are looking to rent a whole house that is very private, you should just be aware of the situation.
