I'd definitely like to stay here again.
Lori's place is colorful and peaceful. She lives on the edge of a beautiful canyon and has hummingbirds in her back yard. Lori is open minded, and didn't seem to mind sparking up a conversation when there was time, but wasn't imposing at all. She was also very respectful of privacy and personal space. She also had lots of helpful tips for life in San Diego.
I especially appreciated that Lori has a piano at her house!
The neighborhood is somewhat suburban, but I hear that's how most of San Diego is. Lori's place is situated near some very convenient bus routes, and is within walking distance of a very large shopping center with good food.
