Hello, thank you so much for the 5-star rating. I appreciate it very much. I am sorry but I don't have a property manager, I am the owner. I looked back on all of our correspondence, and I answered you the same day. Not sure what went wrong? I hope you will be able to come again. Thank you, Nancy

The property was accurately shown and described online and was safe, functional, and clean. The North Park neighborhood is quiet and conveniently located near restaurants, public transit, and a great park with public pool, playground, and hiking trails. Free laundry facilities are available in an adjacent building. Free parking is available if needed. The host was communicative and professional. Check-in and check-out went smoothly.The kitchen was very well equipped and supplied for a long-term stay.

It was a perfect fit for our weekend vacation. We got delayed by traffic and came in after dark. The instructions for parking, gaining access to the property and lock codes were so clear. Nancy was very prompt with her responses when I had questions. The sleeping arrangements were cozy. The house sleeps 4. One master bedroom and one couch sofa. The kitchen and dining room was so easy to use with all the necessary tools and equipment for eating at home if that is what you need. One bathroom with amazing shower water pressure. And a front and back patio for outdoor dining and hanging out. We didn’t use the laundry room so can’t comment about it. Would highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Nancy Felton

Host profile image

My name is Nancy Felton and I have been a Realtor in Seattle for 37 years. I have owned and operated 3 other vacation rentals for almost 10 years. San Diego is such a fun place that I purchased this property to make into a vacation rental so I can come and visit San Diego also.

I closed down the vacation rental is May of 2020 when everyone cancelled because of Covid and rented the property full time. Now I am ready to open again and continue with the vacation property. I am excited to be able to provide you with a great and enjoyable stay.
Thank you,
Nancy

Why they chose this property

I just purchased this property in October, 2017 and was thrilled to be able to find a Spanish style home with a casita. That way I can come and visit also.

What makes this property unique

I fell in love with this neighborhood that is so close to everything, from 3 blocks to olympic size swimming pool to the local cafe only 1 block away. Minute drive to beaches, the zoo and Balboa Park. I also enjoy sharing my home with people from all over the United States and the world so they can enjoy this little piece of heaven.
