Simple and easy.

Just what we needed for a weeklong stay to help family in La Presa and La Mesa. Comfortable, clean, quiet and super convenient to everywhere we needed to be. Great communication with the owner.

Wish they updated the info that it was being used for a stay already because once I booked it the owner canceled it and now I have to wait 15 days for all my money to appear back into my bank account.

We enjoyed a great stay. The apartment was clean and fresh. It had a well-equipped kitchen, comfortable bed and couch, parking in the driveway behind a private gate, and access to a washer and dryer. I liked the self-check-in. Lai is very quick to answer messages, and she made sure we were comfortable.The outdoor space would benefit from an umbrella or some way to shade the table and chairs. I wouldn't say no to a hot tub also. :)

Lai was an amazing host! Answered all questions we had in a swift manner. The room was clean and had everything you needed. The only issue was the little ants. Just make sure you clean up all of the food when you are done eating and they go away. Would stay here again.

Very Cute and Clean, Great Location

My partner and I were visiting friends in San Diego, and this was a perfect location for everything we wanted to do. Very easy to hop on the freeway and be downtown in a few minutes. The place is also very cute, very clean and represented well in the photos. We enjoyed this rental very much and would highly recommend.
