Wow! That about sums up our experience over the month and a half we were at Jane and Ilya's place. I can't begin to describe how phenomenal they are at hosting. They've thought of everything! It's unreal!
Check-in for the property was super easy. The driveway will fit a small car, but the passenger won't be able to get out if you pull up the whole way. Street parking is easy, but watch out for the tree in front dumping nasties on your vehicle!
The house has literally everything you could imagine. Good quality knives? Yes. Cutting boards? Yes. Board games? Yes. AppleTV? Of course.
The living room had more than enough space for the two of us, and the couch is great. The kitchen is super functional, and we had a lot of fun cooking in there. Out back, the deck is even bigger and better than the photos make it appear.
We loved the neighborhood too. It's super easy to walk to Adams Ave for coffee and ice cream and it's also very easy to get to North Park for the farmers market, restaurants, and breweries there. If you are going further afield, you're super close to freeways that will get you basically anywhere in SD in 20 minutes, or less.
We had one small issue come up with the HDMI input to the TV, and Jane and Ilya were out almost immediately to fix. They're great!
One flag that I would make (could be a positive, or a negative, depending on your preferences): the beds are not firm, at all. I prefer a firm mattress, but if you like yours on the softer side, you'll love it. Wasn't really a problem, just always feel like if my reviews are 100% unambiguously positive, people won't believe I'm being honest :-D.
I would 100% recommend this Airbnb for anyone going to San Diego--especially if you have a car and will be staying a while!
