Susie is a fantastic host and her location was perfect for me. The location was easy to find, Susie provided detailed instructions and we were able to park on the mulch along the well-lit street behind her home.
I recently traveled to San Diego to run in the America's Finest City Half Marathon- Susie's guest suite has a comfortable bed that helped me get a good night's rest the night before and was nice to come back to after the race. The space is overall well designed and inviting. The location was perfect for getting too and from Balboa Park for the race and the community has amazing, local, affordable eateries so we didn't have to try to find great places to eat, which can be difficult in an unfamiliar location (I'm not a fan of eating at chain restaurants while traveling). Susie made sure to introduce herself and ensure we had everything we needed while we were staying with her. She even provided me with some ice for my knees after the race which was a great help. We didn't get a chance to relax in her garden area but it was the perfect location to unwind with a bottle of wine or a beer if we were in the mood for it.
Communicating with Susie was always very easy from before our arrival until the end of our stay. She is very responsive and can basically be reached 24/7. I don't know that there was a time it took her more than five minutes to respond, which is fantastic. Most importantly, we were able to watch the new Game of Thrones episode as it aired on the TV which had pretty much any channel you could want.
I hope to stay with Susie again during any future trips to San Diego. I definitely recommend this host and guest suite to anyone.
