Easy & Convenient San Diego Stay

We enjoyed everything about this property. Host thought of every detail and amenity we could possibly need, and accommodations were clean and comfortable. Beds are especially comfortable! Propert description and other reviews about location and parking are accurate. We were always able to find a spot on neighboring streets. We would stay here again!

The property is exactly as the pictures illustrate and the location is convenient. The first 2 nights, we encountered parking difficulties because the road was being repaired and we were required to move our vehicle before 8:00 a.m. FYI, it was approximately $10-15 for an UBER home from the Gaslight/Old Town areas. John was accessible when we were unable to access the internet and promptly and had it up in running for us quickly. We were pleased with the property and would recommend it to friends.

Great Stay!

We had previously booked this place before and when we saw that it was available we knew that we wanted to stay here again. The check in process was easy and we got lucky with the parking this time as well. Normally when parking, depending on when you arrive you could be searching for a bit. The house was clean and had everything that we needed for our stay. On one of the days the keypad stopped accepting our code and I had to call the owner to assist. He was very helpful and was able to fix the situation right away with no inconvenience to us. Overall, this place was perfect for our stay, communication was great and the host is wonderful.

Soccer tournament visit

This property was located in the perfect spot for our soccer tournament in Coronado and our visit to Padres stadium! The unit met our needs. Parking was the only downside, but generally speaking we found parking on the side street and entered at rear of property, which wasn’t a problem. Beds were comfy and shower had amazing water pressure. I would stay again.

Comic Con stay

Property is about a mile away from the San Diego Convention Center, an easy morning walk. Clean and amenities were abundant. Property owner is very responsive and helpful. Quarters for the onsite laundry room is awesome. Neighborhood is a little gritty and might be a little off-putting for some, but did not feel unsafe at all.

Our family stayed for 3 nights and we enjoyed being at this property! John made sure our stay was comfortable and we had everything we needed. He provided a pack and play and high chair for my littlest, it was very much appreciated! Parking near the house was a little sparse, depending on the time of day we came back. Overall, an excellent place for our small family to rest after a busy day out and about exploring San Diego.

Great San Diego location

This house was a great find for our family vacation. There were five of us total, including 3 teenagers and it was a snug but cozy fit with the two bedrooms and pullout couch. The location was within 20 minutes of all the spots we visited while in SD - Coronado Island, Ocean Beach, Sunset Cliffs, La Jolla Cove, Petco stadium - and we had no problem finding street parking either across the street or around the corner. The covered patio area was lovely in the morning and in the evenings with the fireplace. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked with all the amenities we needed. Communication with John was great when I was having trouble finding our check-in document and when my daughter left her necklace at the house after we had already checked out. The only thing that would have made this house perfect would have been a dishwasher, but I would still rent this place again!

Great experience

We had a great time during our stay. The location had easy access to the interstate. Parking was not always available in front of the property but we were able to park nearby at different times of the day. The living areas were neat and it was handy having all the dishes and utensils to cook. The grill was a bit dirty/rusty probably from previous guests. We had 4 people in our party and there were only 3 chairs and beach towels available, but we made it work. The owners sent important information about the property and were available for any needs. We would stay here again!

34 day review of my VRBO rental

property was clean and best in the neighborhood. The problem I had was parking. During my 34 day stay I only got to park close a few times. Most of the time I was between 200 to 400 feet away. I biggest issue I had was this. During my stay, the owner had a remodeling project going on. Replaced partial roof among many other repairs. I was not advised ahead of time. This went on the whole time I was there, except on weekends. Had I known every week day there would be two workers there making noise, I would not have stayed there. Every day, starting a 8 A.M. the projects started. I would have expected that any considerate owner would have advised of this issue ahead of time. I was severely disappointed in his lack of notice regarding the projects and would not recommend staying at this property. Although the owner was polite, pleasant and communicative, I was not pleased at all with what I call, " deceptive behavior".

Location location location. One problem, the property is located next to The Addams family's house.

The location of this property is wonderful, you are very close to great restaurants, the freeway and many San Diego attractions. The interior of this rental is very good nice beds very clean and it has all the amenities that you could want. If you are looking for a place to sit outside and relax this is not the place for you, if you just are looking for a place to stay and to sleep this place works just fine. Unfortunately, this property is located next door to what appears to be a abandoned house that was owned by The Addams family. You will receive a letter approximately a day or two before your arrival letting you know about the house next door, and that they have offered to have the house painted for free but the offer has been declined. To be honest with you all the only thing that appears to be holding up this house is the current paint that's on it, multiple windows are broken and the glass has been replaced with cardboard. There is also a problem with parking which appears to be an epidemic in San Diego, one evening I had to park three blocks from the rental which really sucked as I had been out walking all day already. Like I said if you're looking for a place that is comfortable to sleep at then I would recommend this place, if you are looking for a place to hang out outside this is not the place for you.

Amazing vacation

Where do I start? What's not to love. This place was great in every aspect. The location was close to everything we went too. Easy to navigate to and from. The communication with the owners was phenomenal. They were willing to answer and and all questions very quickly. They checked on us during our stay to see how we were doing. Prices were very affordable. We have a family of 6 and it fit us just perfect. Loved that I didn't need to pack body wash or shampoo and conditioner. Tjey really did think of every amenity we needed. Made us feel like we were at home. The only suggestion I would make would maybe be a shoe box or container outside the door. I didn't love just leaving my shoes outside but it was a minor detail. The kids loved using the boogie board at the beach thanks do much for that. Was so nice to be able to do laundry as well. If we ever come back to San Diego we would definitely stay here again. Wonderful place!!!
