My dog loved it here. John has a beautiful backyard with delicious oranges, grapes, lemons and tomatoes. There is no oven inside, but John has an excellent Samsung microwave that allows one to bake and roast and I took full advantage of it almost every day in my 2 month stay, baking salmon and roasting chicken. The Wifi is decent in the living room, but not so hot from the bedroom. However, I was getting close to 200 Mbps with my unlimited AT&T and Sprint data plans on my smartphones so the cell towers must be real close by. John is basically a very easy going, mellow guy so he is easy to talk to. There were a couple of things that came up during my stay and John took care of them right away. For example, he bought a new washer and dryer when the dryer began to malfunction.
The place is very peaceful and quiet, very minimalistic. The block is mostly composed of young people, some of which go to SDSU. They were nice and friendly.
The pictures are a good indicator of what the reality is like when you get there.
My dog and I enjoyed ourselves very much. It was quite relaxing.
