Location was awesome! It was 10-15 minutes from all the major attractions. Seaworld, the beach, Petco Park, Harbour Tour, Midway Ship, Zoo and Balboa Park. And about 35-40 min from Legoland. We were traveling with a 11 mo, 5 & 8 year old. So having it so close allowed us to come back mid day to take a break and then go back out again. It was super quiet and never notice any outside noise. The planes were close, but never bothered us and my kids loved eating outside while watching them fly by. Neil and his family were so accommodating, helpful and responsive to anything we needed. They were also very fun to talk with. The hot, muggy weather came early this year for San Diego and it was defiantly warm. Neil without asking went out and bought ac units for the bedrooms! This was definitely above and beyond! It was really nice having them so close. Much better than a random person that might not "appreciate" the sounds that kids make! The place had everything we needed for us and our kids. Washer and dryer were a huge plus because that meant we could pack less. The only slightly negative was the tub/shower. Its a beautiful tub. It just wasn't super easy to bathe small kids in because it was little slippery. Maybe even a detachable shower head would work too. Neil asked on the way out if there was any feedback and we told them about this. He was open to adding a better mat to the tub. That would defiantly fix the problem. Honestly that just might be something that would only effect our family and not others. If that was the only negative thing I can think of then that just tells you how great of a place this was. We will definitely be back. I am already planing our next trip there. Oh and there is a Target only a few blocks away so we were able to save a ton by not eating out and taking advantage of their awesome kitchen.
