Cozy and quiet location in North Park - tucked away from the street

Great place to stay- the host accommodated a last-minute request to stay another day as our original flight home was canceled. I highly recommend the VRBO and am grateful to the host!

Great location in North Park. There was plenty of street parking during our whole stay. The air conditioner worked well but only really cooled the living room and kitchen area but there were fans in the bedrooms so it wasn’t a big deal since April is pretty cool in the evenings. We did have issues with the WiFi disconnecting from the TV constantly so that was pretty frustrating. Other than that, I highly recommend this spot!

This small back house bungalow was in a quiet part of North Park, but close enough to walk down to University Ave. where there are tons of restaurants, coffee shops, etc. Parking for the house is on the street, but there is plenty of space.
