Love love love!

This location is amazing..the apartment is so cute and cozy! Extra blankets the fans in the room were an added bonus..the AC blew ice cold perfect for them muggy warm days! The view in the backyard was my fav listening to the birds early in the morning and looking at what felt like a cozy jungle oasis! Plus it was pet friendly so our pup got to enjoy SD too!! Will definitely book with the hosts again we had zero issues!

Convenient location near Balboa Park

Nicely remodeled downstairs unit with small deck overlooking a lovely lush canyon. There’s a tiny bare yard that was useful for the dog. Parking is right in front. Quiet, safe neighborhood. Well stocked kitchen had everything we needed.

Spring break triip

The stay was as pictured, loved the proximity to the zoo, and the place was also clean. The upstairs neighbors unfortunately were loud around 3 am on Saturday night which was difficult with our two small children sleeping. Otherwise was what was expected.

California Vacation

Property is in a great, central location - close to lots of things to see and do. Really appreciated that the host had some snacks and water/sodas available for us - what a nice extra touch! Property was clean and the owner was very attentive and easy to get in touch with. The only issue is that I found it to be fairly cold in the house (I am a cold-natured person), and even though there was heat - it didn’t do much to warm the house. They did have space heaters available though, so that was helpful. Would stay again if in the area.
