Kates home in Clairemont was a good place to crash on a budget! It is sort of far away from major attractions so best if you have a car. It was a little bit crowded with another 4 guests staying on the property, it felt a bit like a hostel with waits for the bathrooms in the morning. I wasn’t prepared for the bedroom doors not to lock from the outside so I was wary about leaving my things when I went out for the day, that being said they were fine. Kate was super accommodating with check-in/out, and the lemon tree in the backyard was wonderful.
