This place is exactly as described. Well maintained, and it is obvious that Richard takes pride in the guest experience. My husband and I enjoyed breakfast on the backyard every morning to the beautiful sounds of the wind chimes. You are within 45 minutes drive from ever major San Diego tourist experience, and most are within 15 minutes. There is some construction during the day, but we are early risers so we were rarely effected as we were out experiencing what the city had to offer. Richard was easy and nice to communicate with. We will definitely be back!
