You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Hidden Cozy bungalow close to DT, beaches, & base // pet-friendly //

Experience a beach getaway in our bright and stylish renovated bungalow-style studio near Downtown San Diego. Our studio is situated behind an iconic Craftsman home and features an open floor plan, beamed ceilings, queen size bed with a custom surfboard headboard, and a backyard patio with 2 lounge areas to enjoy some drinks. We are centrally located 1 block away from the freeway and the Naval base and 10 minutes away from the local sunny San Diego scene - breweries, restaurants, and attractions.

PLEASE NOTE:
The studio is in the back of a multi-unit property - the driveway, carport and laundry are shared.

The narrow width of the driveway and carport may require some additional attention while driving in and out, therefore we only allow compact cars. It's important to note that there might be limited space for turning around, so if you have any concerns about parking or access, please contact me for further guidance.

Also note that this building is comprised of 2 back-to-back studios. While each studio is private and has its own separate entrance, they share a common wall and laundry area.

Rest assured, I strive to make your stay as convenient as possible. I understand that the narrow dimensions might not be suitable for everyone, particularly if you have a larger vehicle or are not comfortable with tight parking situations. However, if you're willing to accommodate these items, this private studio offers a comfortable and convenient home base for your visit.

Please reach out to me if you have any specific questions or concerns about the parking arrangements. I'm here to help make your stay as enjoyable as possible.

Perfect little nook for a mom and her daughter and her daughter’s best friend. We loved the cute quirkiness of the place, and the ease of checking in and the location close to where we needed to be. Would recommend to anyone looking for a quick getaway!

Comfortable place

The neighborhood is a bit sketchy for walking the dog. Once the car was in the carport and the door closed behind us it was a very nice place to be. No gate to keep the dog in the patio/yard area. Weird valves in the shower, I never did figure it out…

Wonderful host!

Rosy was an excellent host! We had hiccups with our travel schedules, causing us to arrive a different times, and she was excellent in helping to make things as smooth as possible as we checked in and checked out. Very cute little unit. Worked great for what we needed for our weekend getaway.

Great stay in San Diego!

We had a great time staying at this beach bungalow. The space was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed for a nice and relaxing stay! Communication with our host was quick, polite, and always helpful. The location near downtown SF made it convenient to travel around to restaurants, museums, and even spend some time near the ocean! I would recommend this stay highly! Thank you, Rosy, for everything!

Cozy

We had a nice visit. The amenities were perfect for our stay. It was close to everything. The location was perfect that way, but not the best neighborhood, so just be smart about your surroundings if you are going to explore the neighborhood on foot. Otherwise perfect for us.

My stay in National City

Very nice place. Rosy was very accommodating and considerate. Driveway is a little tight but provides protection from the street which is good. 5 minute drive from work and about 15 minutes from nearly everything in San Diego. Would highly recommend for any party of 1 or 2 people.

It was a very nice studio apartment. The only concern was the parking. It is a rather small car port (unless you want to park on the street).

Clean and Safe

Great little place. Very clean. Impressed with Rosy’s responsiveness. She sent me photos on how to find the place and to navigate the long narrow driveway before check in. That was key or I would have never found the place. Overall very good. Small car definitely better since the parking space is tight and the driveway is narrow and long. Would definitely stay here again! Mary

Great studio for a short stay

The studio is small but spacious and has everything you need. Fully stocked kitchen and bathroom. Rosy was a great host, very communicative and responsive. Parking is tight but we have a small car so we made it work. Also just to note, not that this reflects on Rosy's place, but there are a couple of noisy dogs next door just for your awareness. Overall a really great studio, we stayed over a long weekend with our dog and everything worked out great for us!

Cute, but loud.

Owner was very communicative, the inside was very cute and clean. The outside wasn't cleaned up and the cleaners have access to the private patio (so not so private) where the washer and dryer are located. Also, if you have dogs, there is an open entry, so you will need to bring a gate. The neighbors dog is out all day and likes to bark, so don't expect to sit out on the patio. Easy access to the freeway.

Sweet little San Diego Studio

My son and I needed a place to stay for 2 nights while checking off Petco Park on our MLB stadium tour. We chose this location because it was close to everything we wanted to do and see in San Diego - less than 15mins to the stadium, beach, Coronado, etc... The place was clean, cute and comfortable with several little thoughtful add ons. Rosy was an amazing hostess! You could tell it was important to her that we had a wonderful time and were comfortable in her place. I had messed up the scheduling for our trip and realized we were going to need to leave by 4am own our departure morning. I let Rosy know that we were going to leave that early. She replied by telling me I didn't need to worry about any of the check-out responsibilities and to just get up and go and have safe travels. It's nice to know that people you've never met still care about you and will make some sacrifices/exceptions for a stranger's well-being. :) Thank you Rosy!

Would definitely stay again!

Rosy was very responsive! The patio had flies (probably due to pets) and she immediately had it cleaned so that I could work outside. The bed could be a bit more comfortable as I sank in a bit on the left side. Other than that, everything was perfect and I will definitely return when I come back to the area! I felt safe and had what I needed!

Great stay

Very clean and nice. Cute little studio that was perfect size for my son (16) and I’s 3 night spring break trip. Parking was a challenge but we made it work- would not recommend a car larger then a small SUV or expect to park on the street which is almost impossible. I also do not think 4 people can stay in the beds provided. The pullout couch is a twin pullout so can only fit one person. It was absolutely perfect for our purpose and would highly recommend. Extremely fast and reliable communication with host!
