Sam is a wonderful host. Communication was efficient and check-in was super smooth, considering my booking was very much the last minute (on the day of arrival literally). Highlights include:
1. Spacious indoor garage - big enough for two cars. This alone is enough to bring back here to stay again!
2. Complete privacy. The two story cottage sits in the backyard with its own balcony. First story is garage; second story is kitchen + livingroom + bedroom all in one, open concept which I love, and a full bathroom.
3. Kitchen is equipped with fridge, stovetop (two electric burners), airfryer, coffee machine, pots/pans/cutlery/plates/bowls, glasses/mugs, kitchen towels, paper towel. And BBQ is on the balcony, which also comes with a swing chair for two. You would enjoy the evening sunset view from the balcony.
4. Living room comes with couch, coffee table and TV (roku available).
5. The bed is super comfy and I loved the linens.
6. The entire place has wooden floor which is perfect for me as I tend to have allergies to dust and stuff caught in the carpet.
7. Internet is super fast! Conference calls for work were no problem.
8. Location!!! Close to the supermarket, restaurants and Coronado island is only 20 minutes drive away!! The world famous San Diego Zoo is 30 min walk away (yes, I did walk to the Zoo and back). Other touristy attractions are also close by.
Overall, Sam's place is the best of all the Airbnb I've stayed. If I ever come back to visit San Diego again, I'd definitely prefer to stay here than anywhere else. Thank you again, Sam, for a wonderful 3-night stay at your cottage.
