My friends and I (a group of 6) stayed at this place during our trip to SD and we chose this place because it was so close to downtown and everywhere we wanted to check out. The neighborhood seemed pretty safe, the area is quiet, and there aren't a lot of commercial properties nearby so I would advise driving out to see more and do more. There is no reserved parking space for this Airbnb so you have to find street parking, which we have found every time without much problem, it doesn't have a time limit or a permit required, and it's free. The house is locked with a keypad, and the code will be given to you when you are allowed to check-in.
Thomas was easy to communicate with via the Airbnb app and allowed us to check in a little earlier so we could drop off our bags before going downtown. When we first arrived at the Airbnb, we realized it wasn't cleaned very well, the windows were left open, and the beds were not set up for our entire party. I notified Thomas who quickly sent someone back to clean up, but we still found a used Keurig cup left in the Keurig machine, there were spider webs all over the window locks, and several areas in the house that were broken or falling apart. I let Thomas know about the hole in the shower wall and the broken door handle to the fridge, which he has acknowledged and will hopefully fix before the next party. The house seemed pretty old and the cleaners weren't thorough so don't expect a super homey stay, but it served our need for the trip. I don't think most of our problems are Thomas's fault but just better maintenance and quality control is needed.
