This property was perfect. I was looking for a place I could continue to use while I come visit from the east coast. My mom is in Lemon Grove in assistant living and this was the perfect distance and gave me a wonderful private home feel to come back to unwind after each day. So peaceful, clean and comfortable. They have all the amenities you need. This is a winner for me and will be my home away from home.

The guest house was a perfect place for us to stay for two weeks while we helped our son and daughter-in-law with our grandchildren. It had everything we needed. It was clean, comfortable, and well kept. It was a great refuge for us.

Very clean property, lovely neighborhood close to convenient shopping. Both bed and couch were very comfortable for sleeping. Nice to have a washer and dryer in the guest house. Very quiet area. Took a couple of nice long walks up to the top of Mt. Helix for amazing views. Convenient location for visiting San Diego State University.This place had everything that we needed.

Beautiful property & amazing hosts!

The accommodation was super clean and in a very nice neighborhood! There were grocery stores and some food places within walking distance (5-10 minute walk) and the hosts were very friendly and helpful with any questions we had. I can’t recommend this place enough!

Cutest little bungalow with a wonderful front porch!!!

We loved our stay at this vacation rental. It was quiet, private and had wonderful flowers around the patio. I’d stay here again 10/10! We were able to walk to the grocery store and ate our meals outside on the patio.

Great guest house

This cute guest house was just right for our visit to the San Diego area. It was clean, comfortable and efficient, exactly as the pictures showed. It is close to El Cajon, where our daughter lives, and conveniently located to all highways going downtown and to the beaches. Hope to come back again!

Great Little Getaway

This place was quiet, clean, and very enjoyable. Comfortable bed. I LOVED the shower, especially the stones in the floor! Essentials are provided in the kitchen and bathroom. Reclining on the couch lulled me to sleep most nights. I would absolutely book this place again.

Perfect for our stay in San Diego

My wife and I stayed here while visiting friends in Spring Valley. The guesthouse is separate from the main house and is large and quiet with all the amenities we needed. The kitchen is well appointed, the living area and bedroom are spacious, and we appreciated the washer and dryer at the end of a long California trip. Anca was a great host and responded promptly to all our inquiries. Highly recommended!

Overall, it was well appointed, we were comfortable, it was very quiet, & the location was great for us--just 8 minutes away from family. We gave it a 4 b/c there were occasional faint mildew & sulfur odors. Instructions on how to navigate the TV options would have been nice, also. All said, it's very nice, the host is responsive, and we would stay there again.

Clean and comfortable

Property was clean, well decorated, fairly new. We have stayed at a lot or rentals since we both retired, this was the cleanest!! Some things were placed too high for short people to reach comfortably ( extra towel bars, micro wave, clothes bar in closet, table and chairs in eating area).
