Overall the house worked well for us. It did get hot in the bedrooms during the day, but if we ran the air conditioner and opened the windows once it cooled off, they would cool off. Georgina was very quick to respond if we needed something, and even got several items out of storage for us. We loved having beach toys available as well as a pack and play. We cooked in the kitchen several times and had everything we needed. We drove into San Diego several times and the drive wasn’t bad at all. Overall it worked well for our family.
