Super Convenient Home

This was a great home with all the amenities. We were able to walk to Balboa Park, Little Italy, and the Embarcadero. (we were a party of all adults). It is also under 2 miles from the airport, which is convenient, but there is no escaping that you are very close to the flight path. The owner is very responsive and we had a good time hanning out there in our down time.

Little Italy weekend

This property is very clean and easy for a family. The beds were great and the outdoor space was comfortable. Walkable to restaurants and Little Italy. The only downside or upside, depending on perspective, is the proximity to airplane traffic. We enjoy planes, they are close, but with windows closed for sleep you won’t have issues. Host was very friendly,prompt and accommodating!

Quaint and Centrally Located

Our family enjoyed our stay at this property in San Diego. It was very close to Little Italy which allowed us to walk to some delicious restaurants. We appreciated being able to park in the driveway as parking can be difficult to find in San Diego. The property was very clean and welcoming. The host was very helpful and quick to respond to messages. It was very well stocked with everything we needed. We especially appreciated the small cooler to take to the beach for a day as well as the washer and dryer. The beds were very comfortable and we were not bothered by the airplanes flying so close by. We would stay here again if we come back to San Diego!

On top of that every time second bathroom is in-use, we can hear very loud inside of the second bedroom. Recommend not to use this room If you are a light sleeper or with small children.

San Diego Vacation

We were supposed to be in the Gulf of Mexico, due to hurricane Beryl we did a last minute change of plans and opted for San Diego. The location of this home was wonderful, parking was never an issue. Our kids were so exhausted from the beach and daily adventures everyone slept great, noise was not an issue. The property is just as described, we spent an evening in the backyard and enjoyed the firepit and a movie night. It was an overall great stay, we would definitely come back and stay in this home. Our older kids loved walking down to Little Italy for coffee, dinner, and the market on Wednesday. The property owner is very responsive.

Beautiful space, close to everything

The property was super clean and spacious, and had thoughtful amenities. Walking distance to restaurants in Little Italy and to the waterfront. Like others mentioned, it is right in the landing path for the airport, but couldn’t hear them inside and we didn’t mind them sitting in the back yard and watching the planes while we sat around the lovely fire pit. Also we really appreciated having guaranteed parking! Had a little issue and the property management was super fast to respond. Towels are getting a little tired and had to jiggle the handle on the master toilet, but for the price, location, cleanliness and amount of space, would definitely stay again!!

Comfortable Stay

We enjoyed our time in San Diego. The property was the bottom level with a nice backyard and comfortable rooms. We were in town for the Rock ‘n Roll Marathon, and it was an easy jog to the starting line. The owner was pleasant and helpful. The property is in the flight path of the airport. I was nervous, but it didn’t bother us at all.
