Not ss Depicted in Listing
Do not rent this place! I am shocked that VRBO allowed this property on the rental site. The "fenced back yard" is a tiny, smelly area that is shared with other permanent renters, and this was not stated on the listing. The neighborhood was very sketchy and there no place to walk my dog that felt safe. Sirens ran all night. Could not wait to leave. No refund was given for 6 un-used nights as I did not take out insurance. Live and learn!

Convenient location but very thin walls
The property itself was great, and having access to the laundry facility was a plus. The only downside was the very thin walls of the unit. There was construction going on in the adjacent property which started at 7 am every morning and was just on the other side of the bedroom window, which did not allow us to sleep in while on vacation. You may want to confirm before booking to see if that is completed. Additionally, another unit in the complex had a small dog which barked incessantly and we could easily hear at night and early in the morning (we were gone during most of the daytime/evening hours). I'm not sure if that's a regular tenant or someone who was just doing a short term rental - but again, something to check on before booking. The property managers were great and provided a credit to our stay for the inconvenience. Aside from that - the place is very homey, the interior is well furnished and decorated and all of the needed supplies (kitchen, bath, etc.) were available. It might be better for someone who isn't as sensitive to noise as we are. Also - I appreciated them noting that the parking space was small. We were offered a complimentary upgrade for a larger vehicle at the rental car place, which we turned down and were happy we did as parking the Hyundai Santa Fe we rented was a tight fit!

Great VRBO experience
This was a great place for my husband and I to stay at. Very spacious for just 2. Huge closet and plenty of drawer space. Nice kitchen. 2 bathrooms with showers. Washer & dryer on site. Nice backyard with amenities to relax in. Nice, safe neighborhood. Bonus: private parking spot just for this unit. I highly recommend!

It was a great!
First of all, the place was a lot more spacious than expected. Loved the view of the city when we took our dog for a walk, the scenery was just beautiful. However we thought that we were going to have the back yard to ourselves but that was not the case at all because there were other rental home with people.

Perfect location for exploring San Diego
We really enjoyed our stay at this property in Golden Hill. The home was clean, had everything we needed (full kitchen, air conditioning, parking, laundry) and the location was amazing. This was our first visit to San Diego and every day when we'd decide what we wanted to do, we were surprised at how close we were to everything. The neighborhood is very quiet (I can't remember hearing noise at night once) and there are places to eat within walking distance -- we ended up having breakfast multiple days at a coffee shop that's just a couple blocks away. The king-size bed in the unit was very comfortable, and there were plenty of places to sit and relax between activities (we really enjoyed the patio in the backyard).
Overall we are very happy we rented this unit and hope to rent it again on our next visit to San Diego.
