Loved my stay here, my main focus was visiting the Zoo and Balboa Park. Wonderful to be within a few minutes drive! The kitchen was well stocked and had everything I needed, no problems with figuring out how anything worked and a comfy bed. All in all a wonderful and relaxing experience! I look forward to staying here again.

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!

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.

If u are looking for San Diego traditional living style this is it. Private parking clean area home is a small cottage for four!!! It was just everything I needed!!! The bed was like sleeping on a cloud. Small night sky u can use a remote for. And walking distance to coffee shops, food and a laundromat! Even though the property has its own to use. A block from a grocery store. It was just everything I needed!!

Everything was wonderful—the location was quiet with groceries and coffee shop within a block or two. Kitchen was well appointed. Communication with host was immediate when we had questions. We failed to notice in pictures (although pictures do show this) that the bathroom is accessible only through the bedroom—not really an issue for us with family members but perhaps for other groups it could be.Overall we had a lovely stay!

Wife and I had a great time staying here. Casita has some privacy from the road, which was nice. Grocery store, gas station, a nice coffee shop, and a great Mexican place just a couple blocks away. Casita was well stocked with towels, soaps, pots and pans, and basic cooking supplies like oil and seasonings. Would absolutely recommend staying here while visiting the San Diego area. Home owner was very prompt and helpful with questions over VRBO.

Nancy's Casita is cozy and spacious for two people, with room for spreading out in the combined kitchen/living room. There are many thoughtful touches such as a makeup mirror in the bathroom and a kitchen with coffee, tea, and basics such as sugar, oil, and spices. The bathroom does not have much counter space, but there is a place to set things just outside the bathroom. I appreciated that there were plenty of clean towels and washcloths. There is a skylight in the bedroom; it took us a moment to find the controls for the automatic blinds, they are located in the closet alcove. The location was perfect, close to everything, with a great morning coffee place only steps away. Nancy was a good communicator, responding quickly to any questions. I would happily stay here again.
