Jennifer gets five for every part of the review the four on the cleanliness was a mistake and they will not fix it! When I sent it, it was five and when it landed, it was four they were clean. They did an excellent job. They were great tenants.!!!!! Vrbo’s has a platform that is difficult to manage with the reviews for some reason! I’ve had this problem a couple of times so sorry they’re great tenants. They were very, very clean.!!

This place is a true gem. Super comfortable, clean, just really and truly a home away from home. The backyard is incredible. We had all kinds of humming birds and butterflies coming through when we'd have morning coffee. This place was an awesome place to stay with our pups. Super safe for them and totally set up for visiting with dogs.Ms. Diane, the hostess, is super easy to talk to and really cares that her visitors have a great experience. We will most definitely be back!

Hard to beat the house location, easy walk to many things in OB and even Point Loma the other direction. Diane was a gracious host, it's so nice to rent from an individual owner and support her.

This is an excellent property for families. I brought my son (17yo) and his 4 friends for ComicCon and this was in a perfect location for me to get them to the Old Town commuter station and cruise right into the convention center. Also a fan of Ocean Beach but be SUPER careful where you park. I unknowingly parked partially in a red zone to get coffee. Back at my car in 15 minutes and a parking ticket was already there! (To be fair, this is all of San Diego, not just OB.)

Great location close enough to the beach but far enough away to not be crazy. Loved the back yard for our dog. Everything was very comfortable including the king sized bed in the master. Would love to come back with more people.

Everything about our stay was excellent. Diane went the extra mile by providing croissants, a small frozen veggie pizza, a small chocolate sheet cake, and half and half for our coffee. After traveling all day and arriving tired and hungry in a strange town those extras are indeed very welcome. The kitchen contains everything necessary. The beds were clean and comfortable. We had an enjoyable time in San Diego and would recommend this centrally located place without hesitation.

This house was just like the listing said! It was a great neighborhood and the house had a bunch of amenities like bikes to help us get around town. We used the futons and all the beds and every room was great! Backyard was an awesome spot to hang out day and night as well!

Lovely home in great location.

We stayed here for four nights with our two boys. It was the perfect size. The location is great on a quiet street, but still really close to all the fun things to do in OB. Diane was so fun and very accommodating. I hope we can stay there again sometime.

Great little place to call home away from home

Other than the noisy air planes flying overhead, this was a wonderful home away from home to use during a stay in San Diego. Diane had everything we needed for our stay and we had accommodations for all seven of us in our family. And Diane was extremely nice and quick to respond to messages. Definitely a great place to stay.
