Kathy has a great home and was a wonderful host. The house is in a convenient location and close to many of the local attractions, like Petco Park, Sea World, the zoo, Gaslamp District, Coronado, etc. There are many shops and restaurants within a short distance. There are also trails and paths nearby if you want to go hiking or jogging.
The neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful and made the trip that much more relaxing. The house had everything necessary to make the stay pleasant and enjoyable. Coming from a warmer summer climate we were worried about the lack of air conditioning, but the house doesn't even need it. There was good airflow from the ceiling fans and always a nice breeze coming from the canyon. The community pool was very nice and never crowded. In fact, often times we were the only ones there.
Kathy was communicative and always willing to answer our questions. Our flight arrived a little early and she graciously allowed us to get in to the house a couple of hours early so we could get to the All Star Game in time. She checked in with us a couple of days into our stay to ensure everything was okay.
We could not have asked for a better experience. Kathy was a pleasure to work with and we highly recommend her house if you're looking for a place to stay in San Diego.
