This place was ideal for our trip. The setup was comfortable, well-maintained, and felt like home right when we walked in. The main highlight was the location, it took just minutes to get to the San Diego Zoo, which made our morning effortless. The host was helpful and communicative throughout our stay. Highly recommend!
The place was just as listed and in a very central location. The neighborhood was nice and quiet and we felt very safe. The check-in instructions provided were easy to follow and the host was very responsive.
We stayed for 3 nights so we could visit San Diego zoo and sea world and found location was excellent for both. The apartment was very clean and comfortable and suited our needs
We have stayed with Efrain in his properties multiple times and have never been disappointed. The location is great, place has everything we need and it is always clean. We will continue to rent from him when in San Diego and would highly recommend his place!
Beautifully renovated property in a great location. Very convenient access, well appointed and treats awaiting your arrival. Host was excellent. Highly recommended.
This small home is clean and up to date and well stocked including some thoughtful extras like coffees and cold drinks and snacks. The deck is nice too.
Location was great, perfect for anything in Balboa park. It came stocked with all the paper products and soap we needed for our three day stay, in addition to fun snacks, drinks, and k-cups!
Property was exactly as described. Excellent location. Safe and quiet. So much to see and do. San Diego is a traveler’s dream. We would definitely stay again
This is a very nice house in a perfect location. A very quiet neighborhood close to Balboa Park, Museums and the Zoo. I would definetly stay there again. The home was clean, and had all the amenities needed for a pleasant stay. Thank you to the host Efrain!
This place is absolutely fantastic! Located within walking distance of some of the most beautiful sites in San Diego. Great restaurants also just minutes away. We made multiple trips to Balboa park, and the museums and gardens. The zoo was also a short walk. The whole neighborhood is very pet friendly as well.
It was a wonderful stay! I loved how the parking spot leads right to the door. I also loved the neighborhood. Very clean and safe. I’d say the space is perfect for 4 adults and 2 kids. The shower was a bit tight, and I’m small. My husband is 6’ tall and he said it was manageable except for the fact that the shower had a half glass to cover the water. He definitely made a splash, but at least there was a bath mat.
You can hear upstairs neighbors a bit. Whoever was in the other unit above us wasn’t loud except for when they walk up/down the stairs (stairs are right next to lower unit), and you can definitely hear when they were doing laundry. It sounds like the pipes went down the same ones by the ones in our unit.
Other than those minor things, I really loved how they remodeled the unit. The kitchen had everything we needed, minus some seasoning and oil to cook with. Definitely look at what you got and go grocery shopping after. It did have all the pots and knives and kitchenware we needed. Even had a wine opener, which is not always available at rental units.
We definitely appreciated the AC in the living room. That was our home base while we stayed there. It felt very homey!
It’s definitely more than a few minutes walk to get to balboa park, but a short drive, less than 10 minutes.
One of the best things about this place, besides the cleanliness, is Efrain’s communication. He was prompt ans easy to reach. Thank you for being a wonderful host! Would stay here again!
This location was perfect, lots of things within walking distance. The bathroom was very small, about 35-40 square feet. Great view off the back patio.
We really enjoyed our stay. The deck off the master bedroom overlooking the canyon garden is a great place for morning coffee (and you might spot a hummingbird). It is an easy walk to the San Diego Zoo or to a dog-friendly coffee shop. The space is comfortable and the host very helpful.
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.
Perfect location for visiting the zoo and museums. A short walk. Hillcrest is a mellow community with all the amenities you'll need. It's one of the many reasons San Diego is such a great city.
The property was clean and well equipped with everything we needed. The outside deck made a huge difference, allowing us to eat and sit in beautiful surroundings. It felt like a very quiet oasis in the middleof the city.
My husband and our 3 children, ages 15, and two 10 year olds enjoyed our stay. We enjoyed this location as it was a short drive to the USS Midway, and the ocean. Also within walking distance to Balboa Park! We have Irish Twins who are 10 years old now, they enjoyed their Birthday getaway. Thank you!
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!
Very cute place in an amazing location. We didn’t have a vehicle while in San Diego so this is why we chose this place. Truly within walking distance of Balboa Park. The only time we needed Uber was too and from the airport. The hosts were easy to get in contact with and very responsive. We would definitely stay here again
Well-equipped, very close to Zoo and Balboa Park. We were able to walk most places (no car) although there is a parking spot. Only con was the shower in bathroom sprayed water beyond the partition leaving floor and towels damp most of the time. Washer and dryer came in handy with supplied detergent.
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.
