Everything was wonderful—the location was quiet with groceries and coffee shop within a block or two. Kitchen was well appointed. Communication with host was immediate when we had questions. We failed to notice in pictures (although pictures do show this) that the bathroom is accessible only through the bedroom—not really an issue for us with family members but perhaps for other groups it could be.Overall we had a lovely stay!

Wife and I had a great time staying here. Casita has some privacy from the road, which was nice. Grocery store, gas station, a nice coffee shop, and a great Mexican place just a couple blocks away. Casita was well stocked with towels, soaps, pots and pans, and basic cooking supplies like oil and seasonings. Would absolutely recommend staying here while visiting the San Diego area. Home owner was very prompt and helpful with questions over VRBO.

Nancy's Casita is cozy and spacious for two people, with room for spreading out in the combined kitchen/living room. There are many thoughtful touches such as a makeup mirror in the bathroom and a kitchen with coffee, tea, and basics such as sugar, oil, and spices. The bathroom does not have much counter space, but there is a place to set things just outside the bathroom. I appreciated that there were plenty of clean towels and washcloths. There is a skylight in the bedroom; it took us a moment to find the controls for the automatic blinds, they are located in the closet alcove. The location was perfect, close to everything, with a great morning coffee place only steps away. Nancy was a good communicator, responding quickly to any questions. I would happily stay here again.

Great quiet location

The casita is very cute! It is in a great location from downtown. We parked in the driveway and used uber to get downtown. It was easy and cheaper than parking!The USS Midway was amazing. The casita is well appointed and has patios for sitting outside. The bbq is great too.It’s perfect for 2 people. We’d stay there again and highly recommend.
