Loved this studio style unit! Perfect for one or two people, with a layout that accommodates a king-sized bed, a well equipped kitchen, bathroom with laundry, a spacious closet, and a very nice sitting area to watch TV. Very clean and in a very nice neighborhood that was close to restaurants and most of the nominal San Diego attractions, especially Balboa Park and the zoo. Less expensive than a hotel room, too! I would definitely stay there again.

Comfortable and amazing stay

We experienced a very nice and comfortable stay. The place was very quiet, safe, and conveniently located near supermarkets and restaurants. The owner gave us good information to make our trip comfortable and took care of us to make sure everything was ok.

Great Weekend Getaway

We had a great time in San Diego. The rental is located in a nice neighborhood; local shops within walking distance, so put on your hikingboots. The street has a bit of an incline. Don't forget your parking brake! Easy to get to the freeway and we were at Coronado Beach in no time. The furnishings are comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our own meals. We had an early Thanksgiving meal with our nephew who is stationed at the naval base. We would definitely rent again.

I got exactly what I needed for my two nights in S.D. Convenient location, quiet neighborhood with several coffee shops and a bookstore nearby. My dog loved walking the blocks with me and acknowledging all the other pups we passed.
