Erika ensured we felt at home and informed us in advance of what to expect and to make herself available to answer our questions. Arrival went smoothly and the cute cottage was easily found. We were greeted by her cute and friendly dog. This little pooch was well trained and had a wonderful personality, mase no demands and was happy to be taken out for walks and to show us all her favorite neighborhood spots. Erika's cottage is tastefully furnished and very confortable. She went out of her way to make sure everything went smoothly and we were happy, which we definitely were. It made a great base for exploring San Diego. Would visit again!
