We had a great stay! It was perfect for our family! One thing to note is that the couch is different from the photo in the listing - what is actually there is a grey sofa bed - which was great for our kids to sleep on! I would just update the listing to let people know there’s a sofa bed, it was very helpful!

The condo was great! My co-worker and I stayed there for 4 days, for a conference. loved that it had two bedrooms and two bathrooms! The place was spotless, the beds were comfortable, it was extremely quiet, and just the perfect amount of space. All in all, I look forward to my next trip to San Diego, and my next stay at this vacation rental.

Lovely place. Only note that I would add is that there are two sets of stairs. If you have luggage, this can be an issue. Otherwise, great host and place.
