    Tone deaf would be my first comment. The good: The kitchen and bath remodels were very nice. The beds were very comfortable. It is a charming property. Probably built in the 1920's. We love old homes. The original door knobs and door hardware is great to see. The disturbing: Automated emails regarding contacting the owners when zero response occurs. Most VRBO's have things like beach chairs, coolers, etc. But this place lists rental charges for a simple fold out beach chair? For $9.00 each? Really? Baby gear? A high chair for $15.00? Among many other listed things. The back yard with propane grills and lawn furniture was absolutely filthy. When they suggested I request 2 hours earlier check in for $15.00, I did so. But, they never responded. When checking out, they asked that we do not leave a review, unless it was 5 star. Well the property and service was not 5 star. I suggested that I would leave no review, but sent them an email suggesting how they could improve. No response except for another automated email asking for a 5 star review and how it would hurt them if I left anything different. Again, it was a 3 star at best. My email to them went like this: I understand a 4 or 3 star review would hurt. I will not leave any review since we do not wish to cause you a problem. I've owned rentals, long term, since 1980. However, even short term rentals are not all that different as it relates.... Now you shut my comments off? Okay

    We had such a lovely time during our 1 month stay in SD! The place is well situated and fit our remote working needs very nicely. We had our 2 cats with us and they settled right in too and had a comfortable stay. The place is very nicely located to a lot of cafes, restaurants, and grocery stores, and just blocks away from the Sunday Hillcrest farmer's market which was fabulous! The check in process was super smooth, the place is in good condition, and Doreen was super responsive to our questions and minor repairs. We would definitely stay here again!
