It is a great pleasure to stay with Tao's family (he the music engineer, his wife the pianist, and their lovely baby boy). They are very accommodating, friendly and kind. The place is quiet and spacious, with comfortable bed and clean towels. Their dogs never barked and only stayed in the yard. Tao and his wife have been very considerate during our stay, and it is a very pleasant experience. Their son, Ray is a happy boy who is quiet and smiles often. I highly recommend this place to travelers. Great host, clean place, and comfortable and easy atmosphere. The place is also minutes drive to grocery stores and restaurants, including Souplantation (we loved it). Renting a car may be necessary to get around in San Diego.
