Max & Gabriela's place is AWESOME. We LOVED staying there, and spent every evening we were free in the backyard by the little fire or in the sauna. The place was sparkling clean, comfortable, had all the amenities you'd need, and was super cute.
The unit is located in a really neat part of San Diego, with great shops you can walk to and an incredible ice cream place (An's Laundry!) that we went to three times!
Max and Gabriela and their cleaning team obviously pay really close attention to their space--you could feel the care over each item and all the decorations and plants really made you feel like you were being comforted. When we weren't outside (or out and about), we loved watching a movie, curling up and sitting on the couch with the fire, or sitting in bed watching TV or listening to music. When the gas went out in the back, Max had it replaced (although it took 2 days).
Two small complaints: Max wasn't super communicative. We sent a message seeing if we could check in 30 minutes early, which never got responded to. It ended up being totally fine, but it made me a little nervous--like, what if we had trouble checking in?
The unit advertises organic cleaning materials, but the soaps (hand soap, dishwasher, laundry detergent) were not organic (by any means), and the unit smelled like really strong cleaning material that frankly smelled pretty bad. We spent the first 2 days running the fan and opening the windows to try to get rid of the smell. Major props to Max -- when I asked if we could buy new soaps and get reimbursed for then, he happy (and quickly) agreed, which we really appreciated.
Overall a great stay! But if any of these things matter to you, I suggest you message about it in advance before committing.
