Beautiful place. This location was incredibly convenient for getting around San Diego. Parking was convenient and easy to find. Even though the parking spot is in an alley, we never once felt unsafe.

Great place in Golden Hill
We had an excellent stay visiting family in Golden Hill. The apartment has everything you need for a comfortable stay in a beautiful neighborhood and is very well located for doing things around San Diego. For anybody that hasn't been in Golden Hill before, just keep in mind for the neighborhood that you are right under the approach to SAN and that walking to the main part of Balboa Park requires traversing a deep canyon.

Great apartment, erverything as described and shown on the pictures. It was all very clean and you could see that the owners take a lot of care. The location in a nice neighbourhood is convinient to reach Balboapark in a few minutes and downtown within 30 min walking distance or a 10 Uber ride. Overall the top rating provided so far is fully justified.

Great location in Golden Hill
Our stay was very pleasant for many reasons, but mainly, because of how close it was to our son’s apartment. The rental was very clean and comfortable for the two of us. The keyless entry made coming & going extremely efficient and we felt safe with added security of the gate. We had everything we needed for the week right there.

Good things come in small packages
We enjoyed our 4+ week stay at Balboa Bungalow in Golden Hill.The unit was spotless, small though efficiently arranged and close to Balboa, downtown and many wonderful San Diego attractions, including the beaches.
We did not rent a car ( though parking at Valerie's is included) and found buses, the Coaster and other public transport to be fun and easy. Definitely consider this sweet spot for your stay!

This is a wonderful place to stay and in a great neighborhood.
We stayed here for five days. It is close to everything and we had no problems getting transportation to this location in ten minutes or less. We walked the neighborhoods and felt very safe and people were friendly . The host had great communication and we had everything we needed . We used the market nearby for groceries and we were also within walking distance of target about ten blocks away. This is a great quiet place to stay and if we stay in San Diego again we will happily stay here again. Thanks Rodgers Hosts.

Balboa bungalow
Love the back porch, sitting out and having dinner that we picked up locally. Found a variety of offerings from a delicious Mexican bakery Thai food and great tacos all within a few blocks. Could not have been better. Ubers took us to the places that were further distance or on 26 street due to construction. Instructions were easy to follow, and had no difficulties at all.

Will be coming back!
I thoroughly enjoyed staying at this rental. It was spacious, comfortable, well kept, clean and had the extras I was looking for (washer and dryer, parking spot).
The owner, Valerie, gave me all the info I needed ahead of time but still made herself available if I had any questions.
Good location; not downtown proper so it was peaceful, but still close to all the places I wanted to go (Balboa Park, Chicano Park/Barrio Logan, close to the 5 so easy to get around).
I have family in San Diego and plan on staying at this rental when I visit again. I stayed by myself but it would be ideal for a couple’s getaway too.

Just Right
Thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Balboa rental. The place was nice and clean and beautifully equipped. The front loading washer and dryer were easy to use and did laundry fast. I loved how the place was decorated. It was light and airy. The homeowner was readily available for any questions and communication was excellent. I hope to stay there again
