We just spent a mid January to mid February month at Jerome and Elona's air B and B in the Teralta West neighborhood of San Diego. Large enough for two. It was nicely clean and neat. We spent time in the private back yard (we never saw the tenants from the other half of the house). A block and a half from University Ave or El Cajon St. Both have lots of restaurants and shops, mostly Mexican or Vietnamese.
The Zoo and other points of interest are within close driving distance.
We can certainly give our accommodations a positive rating .
