Alex was a great host and very receptive and responsive to any needs or questions that I had. The location of the the house was neutrally located by the I-5 as well as shopping and bars. As far as thee house itself I felt it could be better maintained. For 5k a week and a million dollar home i expected more up to date furnishings both inside and out. The patio furniture was extremely dirty and just run down. When we first checked in the house was dirty with beer cans and plastic cups still in the back yard from the previous tenants. There were band-aids stuck to the pool deck which horrified my wife. The walls and floors were scuffed and just poorly maintained. The toilet in one of the masters didn't work because the seal was worn out and couldn't maintain the proper water level. With all this being said Alex was very responsive having his cleaning lady at the house within hours of our arrival and had a maintenance man there to fix the toilet well within a timely manner. With a few small changes and just general better maintenance this house would have been worth the Five thousand a week that I paid. But as the house stands I would not stay there again nor would I recommend it to anyone at the current price.
