My stay at Michelle and Ryder's studio was absolutely delightful! The studio in itself is perfect, you have everything you need to have a wonderful time there. And the courtyard is lovely, ideal if you want to have a quiet night "at home" (I loved the hammock). The area is really calm and Pacific Beach is a 5 minutes walk away (Beach, restaurants, shops). I wish I could have stayed there more than a weekend! Last but not least, Michelle and Ryder were perfect hosts, they always answered promptly whenever we had a question or needed something. If I were to come back in SD, I already know where I'll stay!
