Bryan was very prompt in communicating with me throughout my trip and graciously greeted me at his home, checked me in to the space, and made sure I had everything I needed. He is friendly and was always just a quick text away. Because it was my first trip to San Diego, Bryan kindly offered a few must-see places/recommendations, including Coronado Island, which I was able to go see.
The space was impeccably clean and secure, with it's own private entrance, and included extra cushy pillows and blankets (it gets chilly in SD at night in January!), with the thoughtful addition of a nice space heater on stand by. I especially appreciated the cable TV and the sparking clean bathroom.
The real gem in this place is the beautiful backyard the room opens up to. After finishing my research each day I would come back, open the doors to the patio, and sit and type my notes. Windows on three sides of the bedroom light the space beautifully with natural light, and many varieties of potted succulents and the most enchanting tree in the backyard (with a swing!) provide an idyllic background. A very peaceful and quiet setting. I loved staying here and would highly recommend!
