David was a great host and very receptive to our needs, however, for our family this property was somewhat dissapointing.
This house was not comfortable for our family of ten. The crib listed was no more than a pack n play which for our youngest was fine but would not have been if she were 6 months older.
The dining area in the house was not large enough for all of us to eat a meal together. And the main area only had comfortable seating for 5-6.
The kitchen, during our visit had a lot of issues. The dishwasher was in disrepair, the freezer had a non working ice maker and was just filled with bags of ice. There was inadequate lighting and minimal work space if you were planning on making any kind of a full meal.
The grill needed some work, the alarm system did not work until our last day, a door lock to the back patio needed repair, the television needed adjusting.
This house is more suited to adults than a family with young children. One bedroom had only a double bed. There was a twin cot but nowwhere to set it up where there would have been privacy.
There is no airconditoning but the transom windows help during the day when you can keep the doors to the outside open to get cross breezes. There were enough fans but many of them blew dust along with the breeze.
We spent most of our time away from the house and ate almost every meal but staggered breakfasts in restaurants.
This would be a comfortable house for 6, but not for 10.
Also there is a lot of noise from Torrey Pines especially if you sleep in the bedroom behind the kitchen.
The decor is very pleasant and the bathrooms were quite nice, which was the real bonus.
The second den? area again had inaadequate and uncomfortable seating, however the desk area was great for those who needed to check into work.
I would suggest to David that he check his property between occupants, if possible, to make sure that everything is in good working order from guest to guest.
