Met us at the house for an early check in and provided all the info we needed for local eats and treats. The house was exactly like the listing and had all we needed. Very centrally located for all our sightseeing and exploring. Would certainly use this place again if we ever visit the area again."

Guest Reviews:

- "The space is very clean and many necessities are thoughtfully provided. The neighborhood is awesome! It has easy access to everything we wanted to do in San Diego. Downsides: The couch in the family room is uncomfortable and just does not work for anyone with back or knee problems. A variety of seating options would be nice. Feather pillows kept me sneezing all week. All in all, though, a great place to stay!" - "This is a beautiful property that served our purpose perfectly. The place was clean, bright and in a great location."
