My mom and I stayed at Rick's place during her birthday get away over Easter weekend. It was nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. Rick was nice and left us a bottle of wine.
His place is nicely located. We were able to get to the harbor area, Little Italy and the airport within 15 minutes and La Jolla in about 20-25 minutes. It was nice having a dedicated covered parking spot.
I definitely recommend staying here during your stay in San Diego.
