2 words - THE VIEW. The beautiful view of SD and the airport (which you do not hear a sound from the airport btw, I was concerned about that) 100% makes this place. We spent 95% of our time at the house on the deck. Bill was a great host with great communication. When I asked about the playpen he had it at another property but went out of his way to buy another one and drop it off. I will say that the photos are really great professional photos of the inside of the property b/c in person it was a bit more outdated than we expected. However this "charming" (vintage) style of home is very common for SD houses which are typically older, you will find that everywhere there. But it was fine, the view made up for it and the neighborhood is also great, in walking distance of a bunch of restaurants and close to everything. Would recommend for an authentic SD experience.
