This house is now our go-to spot when staying in SD to visit family. The home is updated and VERY clean. It has all the little things that are really helpful when you're on a longer stay with kids - Tupperware, highchair, cooking oils, pans etc. If you bring a dog be aware that there are a few open spots in the fence, we've brought our dog both times we've stayed and just figured out blocking it with something. There's outdoor space with furniture in the back and a great front porch for a small gathering, which is helpful for social distance hangs during COVID times.
Michael is a great host, very on top of communication and is very accommodating.
The neighborhood has some of our favorite places to eat and hang in San Diego.
55 Thai is awesome. Adalberto's for a SD burrito fix. Dark Horse is the best coffee in town. Luigis for a slice. Golden Hill Park for lying in the grass and watching airplanes with our kid.
