We had a great stay at John’s place. He was very responsive. It was our first time in an AirBnB where you are aware you’re actually living in the owner’s space (most of the prior ones we’ve stayed at did not have owner’s personal possessions). We saw it as a positive as John kindly permitted us to explore his incredible vinyl collection, as long as we were super careful with the records (and rightly so). We had a car (rather tight parking), but the location is great for walking, easy distance to the coast, restaurants and groceries too. Sleeping is ideally for a couple (nice king mattress)! The couch does not pull out and the Airbed could take up the lions share of the living room. Would definitely recommend John’s place. It is a perfect way to experience the aromas and chill vibe of Pacific Beach!
