Our family of 4 stayed at Ryder's house. As per the description, the house is one block from the beach. Ryder was quick to respond to all our questions and came by the house to fix a minor issue. Our stay here was during the period of unexpected high temperatures for late September - over 30 degree Celsius each day. Thankfully the house has fans that kept us cool. We had a car, so the off street parking came in handy. The location is great to explore pacific beach, mission beach, San Diego and is about a 40 minute drive to Legoland.
