we had a wonderful experience staying at isabel's lovely home for a recent weekend in san diego. the place is very clean, beautifully decorated, and perfectly located -- close to the beach and walking distance to good restaurants. isabel was very welcoming and left us a list of restaurant recommendations (all very good). also, there's a roof deck attached to this place with an awesome view. all in all, isabel's backyard was the perfect home base for our weekend exploring the city.
