Michael's place was great. It is an ideal rental for anyone seeking an intro to San Diego. The room and house feel matches the spirit of the city, wth it's meditation rooms and common garden areas. While I did not get to meet him, his co-host was very communicative and responsive when my travel plans got derailed causing me to arrive later than expected.
Having separate and keyless entries allowed me to come and go freely without disturbing anyone. My room was very clean and surprisingly quiet. The only downside was the in-room toilet (no shower) which did not flush properly and caused the poorly ventilated room to smell a bit odd.
Beyond that, it was a perfect destination. I will likely stay at Michael's again and try another of his colorful rooms.
