The home is centrally located to get to anywhere in San Diego. The Coaster and Amtrak trains are within five miles, the airport is a short Uber/LYFT drive away, there are public bikes and scooters to rent around the neighborhood and of course there is the bus line as well. Because of the location and activities in this central location, many guests don't need a vehicle at all. As mentioned above, one parking permit will be provided upon check in.
Parking is out front and one permit will be provided upon check in. Please make sure you don't park in the metered spots as you can get a ticket! Typically, if nothing is available immediately in front of the home, parking can be found further down on the street and worse case scenario, the next street over. Weekends are the worst and during mid-week, there are usually plenty of spots.
The home is perfect for a quiet family vacation. We do not host guests to have parties.
Some fun games can be located in the dining room buffet. TV and fan remotes are located in drawers near the location of the TV. Fireplace is gas and there is a key required to turn it on along with a lighter. Please keep key and lighters away from children. Appliances are easy to use. Please leave pocket doors from dining to living room open as they tend to get stuck sometimes if not closed properly.

Summary: The location and pictures are as described. Cute home and we felt safe. We did have some hiccups along the way but the place was nice We were able to walk to restaurants, grocery stores and a pharmacy within a block. It was in a short driving distance from all the different tourist location we wanted to go to. The place was very clean. A major issues was the parking. It was extremely stressful every night coming back and fighting to find a parking spot even with the two parking passes they were able to get us. Most nights one of not both cars had to park a block or two away. We came with a family of 7 and to be clear to anyone staying it is only for 6 people unless you have small children sleeping in your beds. We realized this after we booked so we had one person on the floor which wasn’t great but we made it work. There were not enough wash clothes for everyone so for the first two days we were washing towels each night and sharing. We did end up contacting the host and they did respond (for the first time in a while) and had someone bring them. Communication with the host was terrible. Messages and questions were sent multiple times to the host and no response was given till we repeatedly messaged. There was also a women who paced the house every night around 3:30 smoking and fighting with her boyfriend. People also came in through the front gate to get to house in back in the middle of the night and during the day waking the dogs and house every night.
