We enjoyed our stay in the guest house. We just found the parking a hassle because the lot didn't have its own parking lot. John is really kind and communicated well with me and provided us what we needed.

The parking isn't very convenient for someone who is in a wheelchair. We loved the house but again had to leave her wheelchair outside as well as our shoes(which isn't a problem) We felt safe due to needing a code to get into the property. Tje water gets very hot so be careful letting littles play in the tub. We loved havimg the hot water because most places don't usually have good hot water. The beds were very comfortable.

The instructions that were issued 3 days before the stay were definite and well defined. It got very hot and warm inside. I wish the bath mat was of non slip kind rather than move each time when you stepped on it.

The house is very clean, it is small but has everything you need, aud it is very centrally located making all of the San Diego attractions minutes away. Parking was not a problem. Our only suggestion is improve the mattresses.

Quick visit on our way to Hawaii

Accommodation was exactly want we were had in mind for our short stay. Clean and equipped as stated. One small thing, the front bedroom was very hard to get around the foot of the bed. I hit my knee on it, so i remedy that problem by putting a pool noodle around it, worked great.

Guest house in San Diego

This small guest house was ideal for our 12 day vacation in San Diego. Location was perfect for us to walk to seaport village and gaslamp. We even walked to little Italy and balboa park. Otherwise Ubers were quick and reasonably priced for the short distance. The guest house was a private getaway with kitchen set up so that we cooked breakfast every day. We would stay here again and highly recommend it for 3-4 people.

Perfect Guesthouse

My family and I were in San Diego to witness my grandson graduating from the Marine’s boot camp. Our experience was absolutely perfect. This property is so cute, immaculately clean, and the beds were comfortable, The owners stayed in contact with us via email making sure we were comfortable and to see if we needed anything. I would definitely recommend staying here!!!!

Great place, well run

We've stayed here a couple of times now. Nice place. Wish it had a parking space, but you can't have everything in life. Owners are great. They let us check out late because they didn't have anyone coming in behind us, and when there was a mix up with the cleaners prior to our arrival, they fixed it asap and comp'ed us the night. Can ask for fairer than that.
