About the host
Hosted by Sergio Bernal
I have owned this property since 2012 and this rental space was just remodeled in July 2019. I am usually around and can accommodate you with towels or blankets if you need extras. I love living in San Diego and have lived here all my life so if you need ideas or would like to know what is around I can let you know.
Why they chose this property
If you are looking for a place where you are only 15 min away from downtown and want to save some money, this is a great place to come.
What makes this property unique
The Trolley or train which is the city transportation is only a 2 mile walk or a 1 min drive and you can leave your car in a public parking lot right in front of the trolley if you plan on not paying for parking downtown. It can get pricey.
