The home was beautiful and was in a great location. It was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. The neighborhood had everything that you need - restaurants, shops, places to take walks, including to Balboa Park. Minimal amenities, but everything listed was there. There were challenges with the lock and the fans.

It was such a lovely vacation home for the five of us. The house was spacious, clean, and had nearly everything we needed for our three-night stay. We instantly fell in love with both the property and the city. The interior was modern and beautifully designed, and we truly had nothing to complain about. Justin, the property manager, was attentive and helpful, making our special trip even more memorable.

Fue un viaje familiar y la casa es fantástica. La cocina está muy bien equipada, las habitaciones muy cómodas al igual que el baño. La ubicación también es buenísima. Seguro repetiremos! El único comentario es que mejoren el sofá cama de la sala y que dejen una escoba y recogedor para estancias de más de 2-3 días.
