We really enjoyed our stay at this cozy home. It's in a great central location—about 10 minutes from Pacific Beach and approximately 15 minutes from downtown San Diego, the San Diego Zoo, Balboa Park, and Old Town—making it easy to explore the area.The home has a nice backyard with a BBQ and the convenience of a washer and dryer. It's also pet-friendly, which is a great option for travelers with pets, even though we didn't need that feature ourselves.The owner was very communicative, responsive, and helpful throughout our stay, making everything from check-in to departure smooth and stress-free.We happened to visit during an unusual San Diego heatwave, and the home does not have air conditioning. The hosts thoughtfully provided plenty of fans, and once the sun went down we were able to open the windows and screened doors to cool the house off fairly quickly.Overall, this was a comfortable, well-located home with a great host, and we'd happily stay here again.
