The home is lovely, well-described and professionally managed. The kitchen is well-stocked with flatware, glasses, cookware and other necessities. The back patio was private and the grill was a great feature. We appreciated having a full-size washer and dryer for our use. The air conditioning was most welcome during the heat wave recently. Neighbors were quiet and we rarely saw them. The neighborhood is cute, safe, and unique and we felt perfectly comfortable taking walks with our children. We found we preferred Pancho Villa grocery store (El Centro) to the Vons grocery store (Adams Ave.). We could get to anywhere we wanted (SeaWorld, downtown, Torrey Pines, LaJolla and more) within 20 minutes or less, other than Legoland which was 40 minutes with heavy morning traffic.
We had no need to contact Debbie during our stay, which is a testament to how well everything is laid out. While I didn't get check-in info until the day before, Debbie was extremely responsive once she knew I had a problem getting her initial message. We also communicated after check-out about some damage that I was unaware that we had caused (sunscreen by a child on the black leather sofa and scratches on the wood floor). I felt simply awful that I hadn't caught the sunscreen on the sofa and notified her prior to check out. The scratches I thought were light, but her pictures showed they were deeper. My only caution to other AirBnB guests would be to be very careful of the floors, as we did not abuse them and they must scratch easily. We would have been willing to pay extra for the damage caused, but she did not make a claim.
All in all, a very good first AirBnB experience other than the panic of having caused damage. We would recommend this listing to family and friends who visit the area.
