Stayed here for a week while visiting our son in San Diego. Usually stay in Mission Beach as we love the area. Patty was a great host and very responsive. House would be small for a family but cozy for a couple. Stayed in an older unit but it was well maintained and very clean. Dining area is on outside porch but fine in good weather, and could hear upstairs unit's noise but only during the day. Conveniently located on Mission Blvd north with some traffic noise but not too bad in our rear location. Good value and great choice for couples
