This house is a great location to many places in San Diego and is well-priced for the location. However, there were some things we noticed in the house that we thought people should be aware of. I came in by myself before the rest of my family and when I arrived all the lights were on and the gate was open. Which I realize is nice and hospitable. However, coming in by myself as a woman and not knowing the area I was a little nervous. We messaged Gene multiple times through Airbnb with no response and ended up contacting Airbnb to get his direct number. I called him multiple times with no answer. Once my family and I were together we went in and it was fine, however it would have just been good to get a response from Gene. The second thing was that when we opened the pull-out bed in the living room, there were a lot of mouse droppings in the bed as well as on the floor under the couch. As we got breakfast in the morning, we also found mouse droppings in the silverware drawers, where the pots and pans are and utensils are. I understand that pests come in and have lived in houses where that happens and so I get it, but as an Airbnb, I don't think it is good that your guests know you have mice, which is something to fix easily.
Overall, our stay was OKAY, the rest of the beds were fine and we really only slept there. For the location, proximity and price we would likely stay again, but we think it is important to have the whole picture.
