Franni and Bob are great hosts. They are very welcoming and helpful. I did not have a car during my stay and Franni kindly took me shopping every week. The house has a great view and the location is close (5-15 minutes) to bus stops taking you north (e.g. UCSD), west (e.g. Pacific Beach), and south (e.g. Old Town, Downtown). I really had a very nice time and can only recommend staying with Franni and Bob.
