Great base for San Diego.

The condo was nice and clean and home like. It was a wonderful alternative to hotels, and we felt very comfortable 'moving in' for the few days we were here. We hope to come back and spend some more time in San Diego, this VBRO is at the top of our list for a place to stay!
