Amazing location. WiFi was strong enough to handle our work load in the mornings and the afternoons at the beaches were a 7 minute walk. Plenty of food options and within walking distance and the recommendations in the host book were spot on. We’ll definitely book again next time we’re in San Diego.

Such a cute and cozy place. Perfect location as we had a graduation at Scripps Institute of Oceanography. We were able to walk to graduation as the parking there is limited. Communication was perfect and informative. Walked to dinner ! Would definitely stay there again. Suggest a few more dish towels as no dishwasher… but not a big deal.
