"My host was such a sweetheart, she provided complimentary dinner and the fridge came with food and snacks that she prepared for me and the kids. She is really sweet, even went as far as buying clothing for my nieces and cooking delicious dinner for us. This place is 100% kid friendly and it even comes with a playground for your children. My nieces had so much fun on the playground. The place is very cute and cozy, it comes with a shower, washer/dryer, sink/small kitchen/fridge and even a patio....

"Terrible ! It was described way different on the location where it was . We were charged way too much for everything for one night. It was ridiculous. I thought it was in La Jolla. I was in Mount helix you don't get the actual address until you book it and I didn't have time to book it in advance, so that was my mistake and the people were awful to deal with to try to get information to give to them and the only positive thing I can say that we did have a great family visit, but it was only one...

10/10 Excellent
"It was nice place to stay with family. I felt more safe that it was gated parking to get in. The swimming pool was great on the hot weather my daughter enjoyed swimming. The only thing was the microwave handle was broken and it was hard to open but ai found a way to get it open. Otherwise our stay was great!"
