Other things to note
The guest suite is attached to the main house garage. We have made efforts to soundproof the space, and are of course observant of quiet hours, but some noise may be expected.

Visiting classmates!
This place is in an ideal location. Close to major freeways that can get you anywhere in San Diego County in 30 minutes or less. One suggestion I would make is a ceiling fan would make a big difference and cut down on the use of the AC unit by circulating the air.

I Wouldn't stay here
My son came to the VRBO with me to get settled in. I was the only one staying. As my son and I was looking at the place there was spider webs that they spray painted over instead of cleaning them off. Floor's needed drastic attention. Cabinets need a fresh coat of paint. Shower head was dripping and couldn't shut off. The Flannel Sheets were clean. My son would not leave me there. I had to find other accommodations. Called the owner to let him know I was not staying. He asked why. Shared with him what we saw. My son and I proceeded to call VRBO and was on the phone with them for over an hour with no help. I was not reimbursed any money although I disputed the charges. Was not happy with VRBO or the property.
