Looked just like in the pictures. Cute decor. Cozy yet modern. Comfy beds. Lots of windows for natural light.
The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook just about anything. Trader Joe's was a short car ride away. The kitchen table made it easy to chat over wine and cheese while cooking. The back patio was great for morning coffee sit-downs and late afternoon wine/cheese chill-out sessions. Beautiful sunrise and sunset views.
As a bit of a coffee snob, I especially appreciated the french press and electric kettle.
As a runner, I also appreciated the shower. Great water pressure, and the water got hot enough to really hit the spot.
Lastly, the house was only a short walk from light-rail and the fun stuff in Little Italy. Also, the key lockbox and spare were a smart choice. My guests and I could come and go without inconveniencing each other.
Hope I can snag this place again next time the neuroscience conference is in San Diego!
