Aaron is a nice guy. He attended to problems when notified. He's not a host; he's a property manager. He manages many properties. There is no host per se for this listing. You check in and out on your own and never meet Aaron.

Things you should know about this listing:
1. It DOES NOT have 3 bathrooms. There are 2 bathrooms + a downstairs toilet. The only sink in the house downstairs is the kitchen sink.
2. 2 bedrooms are set up for adults. 3rd bedroom is set up with 2 bunk beds.
3. The downstairs, esp. the couch and dining area is very musty. It has a strong odor like it was very wet/flooded.
4. The house is not for small kids or those who can't do steps. There are steps everywhere; up to the master bdrm. bed, etc.
5. There is no view of any water or beach from anywhere in the house, including the roof. The roof has a lot of furniture for sitting outside.
6. There is no privacy in many parts of the house. This means there are no window treatments of any kind in some areas, so that you can't walk all over the house without being fully covered. If you want to walk from the master bedroom, for e.g., to any other part of the house, you must walk through a long windowed hallway that looks right out onto the street.
7. The house is one building off of the main street, so you hear buses and traffic. The garage and laundry are in a separate building.
8. Smaller cars are suggested. It's a very tight squeeze getting into the garage due to the small back alley and the electric pole.
9. The house is very close to the neighbors. It's in a nice area. there is a great coffee bar and sandwich shop within walking distance. You must drive to the grocery store. The bay is down the block and the ocean is across the street.
10. Not knowing the area, it was not easy finding the place at night upon arrival. Use Google Maps on an ipad. Bring a flashlight.
11. Overall, it was a good place to stay for a visit to San Diego. Everything is a 15 - 20 min. drive away.
12. There's not a lot of info in the house. You really need to know how to operate the appliances, cable TV (sources) and know what you want to do in the area.
