Excellent stay in PB for the location (walk/bike Mission Bay trails, easy access to freeway, cafes, grocery stores. and beaches), peaceful neighborhood, lovely patio, and comfortable indoor space (AC, ceiling fan, soft-medium mattress, roomy). Renee was very responsive to our inquiries and kind enough to let us check in an hour early. We have bookmarked this wonderful stay for future trips.

I had a fantastic stay here. Would highly recommend! Great AC and parking which is rare in San Diego, and the bed was so comfortable. Great WiFi if you’re working remotely and a short walk to the Bay and all the best that PB has to offer. Hosts were kind and responsive. Will be staying here again!

We absolutely loved this property. It was the perfect place to stay while visiting our daughter in San Diego. The rental is a converted two-car garage, but you'd never know it once you step inside. It was clearly renovated with great care and attention to detail.The unit has everything you need: a full kitchen, a kitchen table, a king-size bed, and a full bathroom with a tub. It also has both AC and heat, and we were very thankful for the AC, since San Diego hit a rare 100 degrees during our visit!The outdoor space was just the right size for us. We enjoyed relaxing in the egg chair and eating at the patio table, which has an umbrella and four chairs. We grilled burgers one night, and the two beach chairs that come with the rental were a nice bonus for our beach day.The location is fantastic. The bay walk is about a 5-minute walk away, and Ralphs and Pacific Beach are about 15 minutes on foot. We love to walk, so we walked to Ralphs, Sprouts, Goodwill, and more. With sidewalks everywhere, the neighborhood is very walkable.We had one minor issue during our stay, and Renee and Per responded incredibly quickly and fixed it in no time!Next time we're in San Diego to visit our daughter, we'll definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Perfect studio in the heart of town

Everything about the stay was awesome! We were 15 minutes from UCSD, where our older son is attending. We were also walking distance from ice cream, dinner and coffee. We loved it and look forward to going back!

Nice convenient stay

Renee the host was super welcoming and helpful with an issue we encountered during check-in. We appreciated her sincere efforts to rectify the situation for us. The property was located near coffee shops and the waterfront. We would recommend it for a single or a couple.

The property is perfect for two in a great location!

This studio is a converted garage in an ideal location. There is a terrific little patio out front with beautiful succulent plants. It is newly remodeled with a nice kitchen. The best part is that it is only a few blocks away from Mission Bay where you can enjoy the ocean. You can ride their bike easily over to the ocean side as well. I really did enjoy my stay in this studio.

This was a perfect space for us while visiting family in the area. It had everything we needed and we loved the patio. It was very private and very pretty. A hummingbird actually hovered by our table while we sat there! We walked to Mission Bay to watch the Sea World Fireworks and we were a two minute drive to the beach and all the restaurants. You could walk to them too! Ralphs supermarket is right down the street for stocking food supplies. We read that the bed was comfortable in other reviews and they were correct. My husband is 6'6" and fit! That is huge for us. We would absolutely stay here again. The owner was very easy to work with and attentive to us. Thank you!

Great Stay

A great stay and the most comfortable bed ever. Wasn't so keen to be woken up early due to skylights with sun shining through but, hey, SUN! A few dishes to use in the oven with associated tools would be necessary if you plan to eat in as we did. Good bathroom with great shower. A chest of drawers (IKEA?) would have been very useful also as we found we were living out of suitcases being there for 14 nights. Pretty courtyard with table, chairs and umbrella - a nice space to sit out and have breakfast. Two bikes provided which we did not use but noticed that they needed some attention if you intend to cycle. Really good location altogether with a choice of boardwalks - the nearer, and quieter, bayside or the busier Pacific beach side. Both recommended. Thank you Renee. We'll almost certainly return.

Perfect Location for Biking Everywhere

First of all, I really have to hand it to Renee. She was excellent in her communication with us. We accidentally lost the keys to the rental at the beach 🙃 (I would suggest storing them in the lock box when you go out) and she was very rapid in getting a replacement to us. Secondly, this has to be the most comfortable bed I've ever stayed in at any rental. The shower also had excellent water pressure and heat! Perfect little rental for two people. We really enjoyed sipping our coffee outside in the gated courtyard in the mornings. The location was in a very quiet neighborhood. We rented bikes for the week, and Pacific Beach is only about a 5-8 minute bike ride. All the restaurants and shops on Garnet were also about a 5 minute bike ride. Overall, I would highly recommend this rental. 😁

6/10 Okay

Great Location -and Owner - needs a little TLC

We stayed five nights and enjoyed the area walking the beach and watching surfers and sailors. For the price, it is a great location, and with a few minor changes could go from good to great. The bed and pillows are IKEA's cheapest brand - and we found the mattress not helpful for our backs. As holiday is all about rest, we would humbly recommend a hotel quality bed and pillows would be an helpful investment; For light sleepers - the layout is one room - and the fridge is loud. We eventually turned it off. The furniture covers and rug need a good wash. Minor things to address. The patio was a bonus for morning tea and reading....thanks for a nice time in Pacific area where there are lots of Yoga studios..

Response from VrboOwner on 30 March 2020
Jeannie, thank you for your feedback. We always appreciate constructive tips on how we can make your experience not only great, but memorable. My husband and I stayed at the cottage while family were in town shortly after your stay and agree that the bed could be a bit more comfortable. You'd be happy to hear we've replaced the pillows and mattress (10" memory foam that is super comfortable) as of 4.7.17. We didn't notice any problem with the couch or rug but we cleaned again for good measure. Otherwise, it was a complete remodel less than a year ago so everything is new. We look forward to hosting you during your next stay in San Diego. Take care! :)

Amazing

The place was is exactly as described. The parking was easy the check in process was easy. We love the out private patio area as it was a heat wave when we were there and it was nice just to sit there with out all the crowds. It was quiet but close enough to everything that we could walk or drive. This was a perfect place for my partner and I. We kept saying we could stay here longer. Thank you so much!

This property is perfectly located in a quiet neighborhood and is exactly as advertised. 15 min walk to the beach and everything MB and PB have to offer. Also a plus for working cooling system, hot water heater, excellent water pressure and private patio. 100% recommend for the value.

Perfect studio for 1 person or couple, amazing location

I so enjoyed my 2 weeks in this studio. It was very nice to have private outdoor space to be able to work outside during the day or enjoy dinner outside at night. Very walkable to grocery stores, bars/restaurants, as well as the bay! Communicating with Renee was very easy and she even notified my I could check-in early due to her cleaning staff being done.
