Franz was a wonderful host! Believe it or not, he picked me up from the airport and then gave me an orientation using a map mounted on the wall. The bed was super comfy and room was very quiet. I had my own clean bathroom. The room is just as pictured and very private. I spent two days. One day I walked down the main strip and ended at the beach with a picnic lunch I gathered along the way...sort of a surfer scene. The next day I did yoga at a local studio and took the bike out to the bay. House is very basic and modest, but perfect for a weekend get-away, not in the center of down town San Diego. Loved conversations with Franz and his roommate as well, but at the same time, privacy was very respected.
