Kevin was an amazing host. He provided detailed instructions for check-in and check-out, and responded quickly to questions.
The house was perfect for us. My teenage son and his friends were able to stay downstairs and play video games and hang out, and I was able to stay upstairs in my sanctuary, separate from them, but still able to supervise.
The house was definitely the nicest one in the neighborhood. I thought we were on the wrong street initially, but then was pleasantly surprised once I found the house. It never felt unsafe or anything, just not the neighborhood you would expect to find such a gem of a house in.
Everything we needed was within 15 minutes. From Balboa Park to the Gaslamp Quarter, to the beach; we were as close to everything as we wanted to be.
