Volleyball Court 5 blocks to La Jolla Shores beach Add adjacent home & sleep 29

Wow. I had no idea Ken was so unhappy here. I checked in every day and asked if everything was OK and if they needed anything.. He kept telling me everything was fine. I had to contact them late one night because a neighbor was complaining about noise. I wonder if that set this off? To respond specifically: The blinds are 2" Bali blinds and were not cheap. I checked every window and, with one exception, they work properly. The exception was one blind in the master bedroom where the top slat was jammed against the window. preventing this blind from closing all the way. This probably was annoying because it's the window through which the sun shines while rising in the morning. Ken and his brothers were in town for Kaboo Music Festival, were up late, and probably wanted to sleep in. I un-jammed that top slat and now it opens and closes properly. All other windows work. We have a new style blind in the master bathroom which opens and closes by being pushed up or pulled down rather than the conventional strings and they might not have know how to use this (Ken arrived a few hours after check-in and wasn't present for the walk-around). My MBZ was parked on the side of the driveway but there were still two parking spots, plus virtually unlimited and unrestricted on-street parking in front of the house. We purchase new towels on a regular basis and have replaced some that had been stained with bleach, by a prior guest. We clean the carpets at least once per month as people aren't always as careful in a vacation rental as they are in their own home. I I agree the kitchen flooring needs to be replaced and have already purchased the materials. Two workers are scheduled to work four days this week as we are between rentals and this flooring is at the top of the list, along with a few other items as we are always having to keep up with the heavy usage as a successful and typically booked vacation home. I checked all three toilet seats and we did replace one, which had a small crack. I suppose that's what he meant. I found one tear in the screen door at the front door. The sliding door to the patio works fine, but it does require adjustment from time to time. There are lights in every room but I'll purchase a couple more. This is the first time anyone has complained about lighting but this way there shouldn't be any future complaints. I disagree about the yard. It's a beautiful & green half acre yard, which is extremely rare this close to the beach in La Jolla Shores.

What a nasty and insulting "review". You know how sometimes as soon as you meet a person you get the feeling you want nothing to do with them? This was one of those experiences for me. His son, who's supposedly taking a course to learn appliance repair, tried lighting the pilot on my furnace. The problem: It had an electric igniter. He melted the entire wiring harness and almost blew my house up. I had to spend over $3,000.00 on a new furnace. This gentleman had the nerve to demand money from me under threat of posting a negative review. Obviously I didn't pay him. The initial problem with the heat: the thermostat was turned to Off. The only good thing from this experience is that now the house has a brand new high capacity furnace with the capacity to add air conditioning. It's experiences like this that make you think twice about staying in this business

The Summerhouse features a large, 1/2 acre yard with a grass volleyball court and children get very excited here. Akash is a nice guy and told me his group had a great weekend here. But he brought a VERY large number of friends and family members to the house, in excess of what he contracted for and in excess of our maximum capacity. Overcrowding a house causes problems, For example, they clogged the toilet thereby flooding the hallway, allowed small children to swing a bat and bash in the side of a brand new (3 days old) storage shed, behind a closed (but unfortunately not locked) gate. The hot tub started out clean, as it was cleaned on their arrival day. But they had lots of very energetic children running around all weekend, which is fine, but can lead to damages and impacts such as sand and / or leaves in the hot tub if not supervised, as in this case. We keep spare lightbulbs and can install upon request, if necessary, but prefer to not enter while occupied during COVID. It is possible the cleaners missed the BBQ, even though it's on their worklist. I spoke to them about this to make sure it's always clean. If Akash had mentioned this during his stay we would have come over and cleaned the BBQ, as we always want our Guests to have a completely clean property. We don't offer surfboards or a wagon, but we do have beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, beach toys, coolers and more.
