Everything was just as listed; perfect fit for our 1st stay in San Diego! Directions were clear, house was well stocked and clean. There were even Bikes to use which was a huge plus. We will definitely be back, thank you Ricardo!
Clean, comfortable and everything a short term guest would need. A nice kitchen if desired and a fabulous fenced yard with jacuzzi, bbq or ! Host was wonderful and professionally attentive!Parking spot was a plus!
Such a great location—close to everything! It was the perfect spot for a weekend getaway. We loved the hot tub and the bikes, and the kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly need. The only thing I missed was a full-length mirror (lol), but overall it was wonderful. I’d definitely stay here again next time I’m in San Diego!
This was the second time either my family or I stayed at this gem in Hillcrest. As always, it was incredibly clean, peaceful, and the perfect location to visit the zoo, beaches, and fabulous restaurants. Will definitely be back the next time I’m in San Diego!
Very much enjoyed the beautiful property and location. Host was very helpful and responsive as needed! Would stay here again. Shout out to Espresso Mio for coffee drinks and the Royal Food Mart for groceries and awesome selection of wine, both nearby at 1st ave and Upas
Rick is an amazing host. Our stay was wonderful. The place was perfect, and the location and community we exactly what we were looking for. Cool restaurants, bars, and walking distance to Balboa Park. We would definitely recommend Rick and his place.
This was a nice little oasis for a getaway with my partner and pup! Check in and check out were so smooth and easy, it allowed us to enjoy the property and local area. Ricardo was a gracious host and was very responsive and helpful. Will definitely go back and look for more of his properties!
I could not have asked for a better place to stay in San Diego. Location is perfect - close to everything, but quiet, and safe. The apartment is very clean, very comfortable, with many thoughtful touches. Ricardo was responsive and helpful with questions. I would not hesitate to stay in the Zen Villa again.
We had such a great stay at this little studio. It was super clean and the hot tub worked great! Checkin and checkout were super easy! Awesome location, just can’t say enough great things about this place! Thanks for everything!!
Great Stay at Private Zen Oasis Conveniently Located in Hillcrest Residential Neighborhood
Perfect private spot for 1-2 people with private outdoor area. Amenities were great, especially enjoyed cooking on the grill and doing laundry from the beautiful outdoor garden area. Space was extremely clean and supplied with all the necessities for cooking. It was easy to walk to visit my daughter who lives nearby in the busier part of Hillcrest, and is conveniently located near coffee shops, grocery stores and the northwest corner of Balboa Park. It was a pleasure working with Ricardo to coordinate the booking, especially when I had a last minute change of dates which he was able to accommodate. I will definitely book this Hillcrest studio whenever I return to visit my daughter in San Diego!
Hubby and I did a little vacation for our anniversary with our 3 big dogs and it was perfect! We took the dogs walking to balboa Park, and around the cute neighborhood. The bed is SO comfortable, heaven! Walking distance to a lot of cute restaurants, bars, coffee shops or a quick scooter ride to little Italy and downtown.
I didn't need a whole house, just me and my dog. We enjoyed the studio and yard tremendously, the location and quietude was just as advertised. Everything I needed and more. Thoughtful hosts, super private and even the neighboring guests were beyond respectful. I will definitely stay here again!!
Just as advertised. The communication with Ricardo was impeccable. And the yard was amazing for our small dog. It was secure and we felt comfortable just letting him out the door. The double gate was also a huge security plus for me. The home was amazing clean and quiet. Also the AC was perfect! Cannot wait to visit again.
As a solo female traveler, I felt very safe here. The hot tub was clean, and the studio was spotless inside. The fenced in yard was private and perfect for my dog. Everywhere I wanted to go was just a short drive away. Ricardo gave several suggestions on where to eat and what to see, and was very responsive when there was a maintenance issue, having it fixed asap. Overall, I enjoyed my stay here!
Ricardo was thorough and rapid in his communication, guest parking questions answered immediately, check in process was as smooth as it could possibly be. Love love LOVE this little oasis in Hillcrest! Decor, amenities, everything was there, AC worked beautifully, and love the little patio and hot tub right outside our room. If I had to provide one suggestion, a small, narrow cabinet for folded clothes might improve the already perfect stay. We had family visit multiple times over the week and everyone loved sitting out on the patio and in the room. Will absolutely stay here every time we come down to SD to visit fam.
