Property was very clean and well taken care of, bonus points for the shower with great water pressure. Backyard was beautiful and we were able to grill and host a dinner. Neighborhood is very quiet and walkable.
Great location, close to Petco Park and Downtown dining. Within
30 minutes to various beaches and other attractions. I would definitely recommend staying there.
Omg me and my family had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful home. Amazing location and the views are beautiful. Stefanie was amazing host! Definitely coming back!
Darling Craftsman home in a true San Diego neighborhood in a great location close to restaurants, coffee shops, and a brewery. The backyard is amazing with a gas fire pit, outdoor kitchen, grill and dining table. We loved eating outside and then sitting by the fire pit. Outdoor games are provided as well as two cruiser bikes that we took advantage of. The host is responsive and accommodating. Just can’t say enough about this place. We try to book it every time we go to San Diego.
Overall a very nice little house in a quiet neighborhood with an amazing backyard. The BEST shower e.v.e.r. I’ll be dreaming of that shower pressure for years to come. So thoughtful with games and other small amenities. Easy to communicate with and very responsive. Close to the conference center and an amazing taco truck just down the road (get the fish taco - you won’t regret it!)
Family of three had a cozy stay here. Everything was exactly as described. Very clean upon arrival. Home is definitely a smaller, well kept, older home, but it was more than big enough for us as we were out exploring the city during the day. The neighborhood felt safe and within walking distance to lots of places. Backyard was a nice little hangout spot and we lucked out with beautiful weather to enjoy it. We would definitely stay here again. Communication was great, super responsive! Thanks for a nice stay!Side note, this location is near the airport so planes are frequently flying overhead.
Host is quick to respond, helpful, and nice. The place was lovely and in a great area. Parking was easy and the neighborhood was quiet and safe. Close to many destinations where you could walk if you wanted to, or drive or rideshare. I would stay here again!
Great getaway. The property had everything we needed and more. Loved the firepit in the evenings. The dog beach was a short drive away and the neighborhood was peaceful and quiet.
Perfect Stay — Family-Friendly, Comfortable, and Felt Like Home!
We had a wonderful stay at Stefanie's place. The home had everything we needed and truly felt like a home away from home. It’s located in a quiet, family-friendly neighborhood which was perfect for us. Stefanie was a great host — very responsive and made everything easy. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, relaxing place to stay.
This house is beautiful, clean and well kept up. The back yard is great for dogs. The walk-in shower is pretty and I wish I had one just like it at home. The bed was super comfy.
Great location, super clean, comfortable bed, lots of amenities. Wonderful host! Dog friendly and big backyard. The only downside was the neighbor’s dogs barking a lot. But that is not the host’s fault so I am rating this five stars! I just don’t think you can get a better place in a better location! Close to highways, Balboa Park, Morley Field, North Park, restaurants and coffee. Love it!
We loved the house and yard and so did our pets. It was great, very thoughtfully laid out. All amenities were provided. So close to great restaurants,Parks and downtown. It was perfect for us.
