Overall the place was decent. Parking was not great for us, the first night spent 30 min circling 3 block radius trying to find a spot to park finally found one at the edge of three blocks away, the second night was able to find closer about 1/2 block, and the third night same 1/2 block. Overall the description of the place was misleading. The house was listed as well stocked kitchen for cooking and having a washer and dryer which is perfect for our family with 3 small kids. After having spent 3 days at legoland was looking forward to being able to cook and do some laundry. Well, the kitchen was anything but we’ll stocked, and what was stocked has seen better days. There was one small pot which had the Teflon coating flaking off and wasn’t sure if I would get any flakes in my food. The pans that were there when we arrived had left over food from prior occupants, and the same goes for cooking utensils and eating utensils, everything had food stuck on it like someone just put away dirty dishes. Originally there was no dishwasher detergent to even clean the dishes. There was one bigger bowl that can be used to mix in, but there was no measuring cups to measure like pancake mix or anything. Next is bedding, while the main bed is fairly comfortable, the frame is metal and creaks and rattles with slight movement. The bunk beds are metal as well and creaked and rattled. Upon arrival I had to change sheets right away for one bed as there was sand in the sheets on one of the small beds. And the sofa bed was horrible, might as well not even have the mattress on it as that’s how it felt. Overall cleanliness the floors were sandy upon arrival like they hadn’t been swept. It’s listed as newly remodeled but the house overall looked at close glance that it had redone fairly recently, but floors were uneven and siliconed cracks, giant cracks in the wall and ceiling and baseboards were caulked together. And last is laundry, it lists laundry as amenities, but then after you get confirmed, you find out laundry isn’t in the house, and it’s outside around a corner and it is shared with more people, so if you aren’t back in time someone can just pull your laundry out and start theirs. And there are only specific hours you’re able to do laundry, and when traveling and visiting and exploring the hours aren’t great to be able to do laundry well.
Aside from the negative, we were able to settle in and enjoy our stay in San Diego. Jennifer was very communicative and assisted with needs. Location of house was good as beach and balboa park were only 10 min away. Lots of restaurants close by. The size of house decent.
