Great Space for end of long work day

Our team came to town for a convention and the house was a great place for us to unwind after long days. The owner was quick in all his pre-stay communication with all the questions I had. Would stay again

Nice, big place. Neighborhood questionable.

Overall, our stay was excellent. The place was clean, super cute, and had all the amenities listed. The check-in was easy, and there was plenty of parking. It is on a busier residential street and driving off the freeway to the house, the neighborhood looked a little questionable. But we never felt unsafe. Host was very responsive with all questions we had. Thanks for a pleasant stay!

Amazing host and easy access to MCRD

The host, Chris, was phenomenal to work with. The home was immaculate, easily accommodated our group of 9 and we all enjoyed the outside space! We came for our son's Marine Corps graduation from MCRD. The base was only a 10 minute drive and there were several food ordering options around that door dash had to us in under 10 minutes! I highly recommend and appreciate Chris and will absolutely use his home again!

Great San Diego Home

We had such a great stay at this home! Chris was very attentive to our needs. The beds were so comfortable and cozy. Kitchen and furnishings were brand new. We were in close proximity to many local attractions. We visited San Diego for the boots in the park festival. Overall I would highly recommend this house, will definitely stay here again!
