Nice house, management & household goods not so much

Nice clean house and good location. Cute, just like the pics. HOWEVER, there are no instructions at all for guests. This is a basic courtesy so guests can take out garbage or get on WIFI without contacting host. We had to message manager for all basic info. Broken oven...the door hinges are bent so door would not close plus it would not heat up. Kitchen was strangely stocked...3 random cinnamon Kpods for morning coffee, only one sad Christmas towel to dry hands or dishes (it's May, BTW), hide and seek for the knives (top shelf behind the coffee pods?). Bed sheets were a strange mystery fabric. No bedside lamps in either bedroom. Bathroom door handle falling off. Getting this home up to speed would be fairly easy for management. Start with replacing the stove, buying bedside lamps and a few towels for the kitchen. It's not a guest's job to send a to do list to the manager during their short holiday so we made do (and didn't cook our frozen pizza after seeing the oven was broken). Don't stay here if you have an alternative.

Perfect Getaway

The Craftsman bungalow was perfect place to stay in San Diego. It is centrally located and close to the all the attractions in San Diego. The property was very clean and had all the amenities needed for our 7 day stay. We loved the coffee shop that was walking distance from the property. The only issue we had was parking. This property does not have designated parking, it is street parking only. There were a couple of times we had to park far away. I highly recommend this place if you do not mind the parking situation.

12min to SDSU

House was well lit & easy to find at night. Front & back yards are beautiful. No dedicated parking & street parking was full when we arrived at midnight. No problem finding parking at other times though. Entry straightforward & easy. There were enough cooking supplies to make a dinner, keurig coffee maker with K cups, water from fridge door & plenty of ice. Mattresses are firm foam. Front bedroom offers a closet with some hangers & back bedroom has larger, open closet storage with more hangers. Bathroom has large shower with rain head, handheld & body sprayers. Bathroom stocked with extra toilet paper, 2 wash cloths, 2 hand towels & 4 thin body towels for 3 people for 2 nights. WiFi decent, quiet area with what seemed to be lots of options for food & drink.

Craftsman gem

Compact, comfortable, and nicely decorated home. We loved how close this home was to our son’s house. Plus steps away from a favorite coffee shop of ours, Mystic Mocha. We would recommend this place and would like to stay here again.

Great neighborhood and home

This place could inspire a move to San Diego! It's an updated, tidy house on a quiet neighborhood street with ample parking. My son loved the spa-inspired shower. While I appreciated the kitchen and outdoor patio. Trendy restaurants nearby and proximity to SeaWorld and San Diego Zoo make it an ideal vacation package.
