This room in Michael's very unique shared home exceeded expectations. Though a relatively small room, it was more spacious than the photos indicated. It was nicely decorated and clean-- especially the bathroom: greatly appreciated. The whole house is very creatively decorated and has a welcoming feel. It was plenty private and quiet: I heard only a few footsteps and occasional muted voices from other guests. And as for the 'warnings' about the sound of low-flying jets: They were rare and sounded like no more than a bit of city traffic-- I did not need the ear plugs I packed just in case! The location was perfect for me: A short drive from the airport. Parking was adequate: I always found something (free and legal) within 1 block. And, of course, the price was right-- which made this trip doable for me. I was mostly out-- attending a wedding, hiking, exploring Torrey Pines National Reserve and Balboa Park. But Michael's place felt like a safe, peaceful home base I was happy to come back to every night. Thank you, Michael!
