This is a really cute property in a lovely hillside neighborhood. It is well kept and family friendly. A few things I would adjust in the home description: be up front about the bedrooms being downstairs. That is not clearly laid out in the description and the stairs could be a problem with persons who have mobility issues. Also, be clear in the description that this property does not have a yard. It says it is pet-friendly but there is no location where dogs can “do their business” without taking them out on a leash.

Great location and good for families

Fantastic home located a short walking distance to downtown La Mesa for restaurants, shopping and access to the trolley and freeway. Great for families with lots of space and amenities. Beds not as comfortable as I would have liked, but not a deal breaker. Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful place with nice views

Overall was a perfect spot , easy to get to and easy to check in. Only two things I would say is if you plan on streaming any TV bring an extra device as their Smart tv did not launch any apps. Also the parents bedroom is a bit on the darker side , there’s a lack of light downstairs.

Amazing Owner

The owner was incredibly sweet and so accommodating. Having children, he had all that we needed and helped me with anything I needed. Super understanding of being a busy parent and hectic lifestyle, I felt comfortable and got any needs met with any questions I had for him. The place was very good with everything close by. Thank you for letting us stay at your beautiful location.

Home away from home

The house and location are perfect! Warm and inviting with personal touches that make the rental feel like a home. Beautiful view and functional black out curtains in the master bedroom. Plenty of hot water with good water pressure. Comfortable beds. Easy walk to cafes. Best espresso is at a coffee shop is called Public Square. Very responsive management with excellent communication.

Lovely neighborhood.

So very tidy and stylish! Loved the decor and the location too! Just a short 10 min walk to bars and restaurants in old la mesa. The deck was great for coffee in the am. Very quiet and clean.

Absolutely fantastic!

This place exceeded our expectations. It is fully stocked with everything you’d want. From baby bassinet, crib and children toys if needed. We appreciated how thoughtfully stocked it was. Spacious, clean and just perfect. We’ll definitely be coming back.

La Mesa Townhouse

My husband, myself, our adult, daughter and our dog all had a wonderful stay in La Mesa. Plenty of room for all in this townhouse which is within walking distance to Old Town La Mesa which was walking distance. Arrived on Friday and we were able to enjoy the Farmers Market. Restaurants for breakfast and dinner also walking distance. You can grab the trolley into San Diego. Nice view from the balconies and great walks in neighborhood. A little road noise at times w/door open but not a problem when closed. Was nice to have kitchen to make meals.

Loved it- we will stay here again when visiting our son at SDSU.

Great property, perfect for what we needed. We were moving our son into SDSU. We arrived late at night so waking up and having the Keurig there and ready was great. The Brita water pitcher in the fridge with water already chilled was great too. The first night, I tried to sleep on the futon but it was not comfortable at all as I could feel the wooden beams through the cushion, so if you are counting on that for a bedding option, it was less than optimal. The real/other beds were very comfy though. Bedrooms were downstairs (short set of carpeted stairs) as was laundry room with washer/dryer, sink, supplies & plenty of space. We had our full size SUV (Infiniti QX80 if that helps). It would not have fit in the garage and we had to park at an angle in the driveway to keep it from sticking out too much over the sidewalk, but it wasn't an issue at all and we are used to that when we drive big vehicles to Southern California. There was some street parking also if needed on a quiet street. The trolley runs right below the property but with the doors/windows closed, we could not hear it at all (husband is a very light sleeper and was worried, but no issue at all). Communication was quick and friendly throughout the process before and during our stay. Overall, we definitely loved it and have no complaints- comfortable, away from the busy streets, close to SDSU and freeways, in a cute neighborhood with a lovely deck where I enjoyed my coffee and watching the trolley go by below.

Comfy master bed mattress - good pillows

When we arrived there was a trash can on the balcony with ants all over it, full of trash and very stinky. I understood the check-out instructions are for us to take our own trash out, which I did, but we do pay a hefty cleaning fee and I am disappointed that the cleaning crew couldn't pick up the slack from the previous occupants. I tried to call and email but received no response. We didn't have time to take this nasty trash out ourselves as we had such a busy schedule and already needed to clean the dirty bathroom before our kids used it. There was pubic hair in the tub/shower bathroom as well as all over the cabinets. I cleaned that immediately up becasue my children were using that bathroom. Then one of the other bathrooms had no towel to dry our hands on so I had to go on a treasure hunt for a hand towel. The showers had no pressure, we didn't get very clean after a very long day in the mountains. That was a bummer. I do believe the dishwasher may need maintenance, when loading it I saw the detergent tray didn't open and was still full of wet soap, yuck. I wish I had a way to privately message the owner of the residence all of this information instead of making this public. Because I believe this is mostly a cleaning issue. The place is so cute, and decorated so nice! The carpet seems clean. Lots of baby accommodations if you have a baby.

Quiet, relaxing stay in beautiful La Mesa

We enjoyed this spacious unit, with its modern decor and peaceful views of La Mesa--Jewel of the Hills. We were a bit surprised by the upside down layout, which featured a steep staircase to the bedrooms, baths and laundry downstairs. But the high ceiling and views from the living area made it well worth the trips up and down. Overall it suited us well, and we would choose this home again for a future visit....
