My husband and I stayed here 9/9-9/16/15. It is exactly as pictured in a quiet and pretty neighborhood overlooking Talmadge Canyon. Everything was super clean and new. We loved sitting out on the deck enjoying the view. It is close to anything you want to do; the zoo, the USS Midway and downtown San Diego as well as all the beaches and Gaslamp District. Erin was a great host checking in with us to see if we needed anything. She has the cabinets and fridge stocked with items you may need (eggs, milk, pancake mix etc). We loved our visit here and look forward to visiting San Diego again!
