Rick was great! My mom stayed at his cottage in North Park. It was quiet, comfortable, super cute, surrounded by beautiful gardens and really clean. She stayed 6 nights and slept very well. She enjoyed the proximity to Balboa Park and was able to take long walks around the various parts of the park. The one, very small, comment about what could be improved was the cleanliness of the dishes in the kitchen. The dishes were put away dirty from the previous occupants. But, that is nothing compared to the great experience that she had.
