Great place to stay

Great cozy home convenient to all things San Diego. Short drive to Balboa Park, airport, and beaches aren’t too far. Comfortable beds. Kitchen stocked with the basics, plus snacks and drinks. Only issue I had was that there was no broom, vacuum, or mop so floors couldn’t be cleaned.

My Home Away From Home

I have to come to San Diego on business three times per year. This is the only place I will stay. I have tried hotels and other VRBO locations, but this one is the best. I now consider it my home away from home. It is an older building, but the owners have really done a great job making the place like new. It is very clean. The neighborhood is quiet. It is very convenient to downtown San Diego and the airport. The rental has an assigned parking place which is a huge convenience. The owners are very responsive. This rental is as close to perfect as any I place I have ever stayed.

I have to come San Diego on business nine weeks out of the year. This is the only place I will stay. It is perfect for my needs. The property is clean and well cared for. The hosts are very responsive if there is a problem. It is a ten minute commute to my office in downtown San Diego. It is close to Balboa Park which is a great place to go for walks after work. It also has an assigned parking space. It's nice to know when you get home that you do not have to hunt for a place to park.

Hillcrest stay

Unit was clean, super convenient location and having the parking space was wonderful. Love that we could walk to Balboa Park. Easy access to San Diego’s sights. Overall comfortable space. Two minor bits to be aware of as renters - one that the large TV in the king bedroom makes it difficult to get into the bed. Perhaps a smaller TV? The pull out couch was not very comfortable - but how many pull outs really are??

Location, location, location!

Our vacation was centered around going to Balboa Park and the San Diego Zoo so this property was perfect for our active family of 6 to walk to and from each day. It was clean and the owner was super quick to respond when we showed up and didn't quite have the access code. The picnic table overlooking the greenspace was nice to sit at and have a coffee in the morning before going out and adventuring. While the listing says it sleeps 6, it did not for us. I have 2 adult sons over 6' tall and 2 smaller children and the 2 queen beds and twin sofa didn't quite work for us. We ended up having one of the smaller kids sleep on the floor. Other than that, would recommend for a party of 5 or less. Especially if your plans include going to Balboa Park and/or the zoo.

Great location and space

Great location - Quiet neighborhood and walking distance to the Zoo and Balboa Park. Space - small rooms and bathroom, but worked out fine for us because we were out a lot and only used the space to sleep and shower. Shower is trendy with one glass panel and difficult to reach in to turm on the water.
