Perfect in Every Way!

The North Park Bungalow turned out to be our favorite stay of the trip! Florence and Matt gave great recommendations and made us feel welcome and comfortable. I loved everything about our stay from the quaint neighborhood, walking distance to great restaurants and bars, water and snacks, easy Netflix access, toiletries, privacy, and ultra cleanliness. Florence thought of everything! If we ever move to San Diego, which isn't out of the realm of possibilities, we'd definitely pick North Park as home. Thank you for a great stay! :-)
