Nice property, great location. House is on a steep hill, think San Francisco so parking may be a challenge if you are not used to this. We came home late one night and all street parking was taken up so we had to street park a couple of blocks away.

Friend's B-day Padre game Sleepover

Loved our stay here and can't wait to come back! Six of us slept here very comfortably and we had everything we needed. We utilized the BBQ and enjoyed the city under the stars without having to go out and spend a ton of money. It was a quick inexpensive ride to the Padre game and back. Our host had the perfect amount of communication. Can't wait to stay here again!!!

Quick stay for MCRD Grad

Property was clean, well stocked with linens, towels, and kitchen supplies. It was a tight fit for our family of six, but we knew that going into it. Michael was extremely communicative throughout our stay. Easy access to the freeway and a quick trip to MCRD. Overall we were extremely pleased with our stay.

It met all of our needs!

It was the perfect set up; a senior citizen Aunt, two adults and an 11 yr old. It was a blended group, which included my aunt, my son, his dad (my ex) and I. We absolutely needed 3 bedrooms. Having a master bathroom for my Aunt with a step in shower was perfect for her. The other two rooms were perfect for everyone else. After a long, long day that started at Anaheim, went to Universal Studios all day and ended in San Diego, a helpful guide for places to eat and shop was so welcomed! Pizzeria Luigi was opened late and they were awesome. We had pizza, salad and a meatball roll and all of it was delish. I can’t tell you how welcomed it was to have a washer and dryer available to use, we were running out of clothes and returned home with mostly clean laundry! We had a perfect kitchen to use and there was nothing that we were missing when we stayed. Michael was incredible with communication and answering questions. I wish that we had more time in San Diego. We just didn’t have enough time in the city. Highly recommend the Go City app and if you have AAA the office is nearby and has maps and was helpful. Only two things to mention: the street is VERY steep and if you get back late, you might need to park further away and walk. We were lucky that only one night we had to park further away. It’s street parking but we were able to find parking almost right outside The front door most of the time. I would def stay here again! Thanks Michael!

The property itself is very well-maintained and extremely clean. Michael is a very attentive and responsive host. The backyard is very quaint and has a tremendous view. Perfect for a getaway weekend or longer. The houses within 15 minutes of most major attractions so it is very convenient. Overall, a tremendous stay!

We stayed at this property while in town to welcome my husband’s ship back from their 7 month deployment. The property was clean, well stocked, and exactly as it appears in the photographs.

Nice clean property and perfect location

The house was very clean and super organized. Many great items and way to many to list but here are a few. Large washer & dryer, large Brita, several TV apps, a lot of towels, coffee pods, tea bags, utensils, cleaning supplies.... The backyard was cute and cozy. Wish we were there a few more days to use the BBQ. The location was ideal minutes from the Gas Lamp, Little Italy, and the Coronado bridge, Our drive to Mission Beach was only 10 mins away. The house is located on a hill. Parking was good The host Michael responds back fast. Had a few simple questions nothing major.
