What terrific hosts Laurie and Andy are! We were the first tenants into the flat after quite an extensive renovation. They tried to think of everything. The flat is small, suitable for 1 or 2 people, with very thoughtful design of space. Excellent kitchen and bathroom - unusual in small spaces. Laurie even furnished spices. We cooked, and every utensil or appliance we could think of were there. Great stove, fridge, and dishwasher, plus microwave and coffee maker. Anything we looked for had already been anticipated. Luxurious linens, comfortable mattress, comfy couch placed in front of an adjustable TV. We loved having an in-unit washer dryer - again, unusual in a smaller space, but they'd designed for it so well. Both of them were immediately responsive to anything we needed, and were attuned to our comfort as excellent landlords should be. We travel a great deal, and this little villa was truly set up for all the creature comforts. Even had fast WiFi. Loved the decor - their talents were so evident in the colors and style of the furnishings and decorative items. The plush faux fur throw was totally decadent on a couple of chilly evenings! We had lived in San Diego for 30 years, but never in the Kensington area. Renting this flat gave us both regrets about that. Very safe, walkable, friendly, and terrific restaurants and pubs nearby. Street parking was no problem. Friendly neighbors, lovely homes of the "old" San Diego architecture, beautifully kept. All in all, a great experience. I'd never hesitate to stay there again or recommend it to my closest friends.
