Very nice place

Very cute, could have comfortably stayed for an extended stay. Manager was extremely helpful. **The negatives: This place is down several steps behind/under the main house and has minimal parking in front, parking is on a hill. This property is not for someone with mobility issues.

Adequate accomodations

Smaller than I imagined from the pictures. Steps are difficult to manage without a handrail especially for the balance challenged. Simple and clean.

Not as told

Condiments was only 1 set of towels x3. We where there 5 nights/6 days. A/C is controlled by owners. Extremely hot. Never got cool. Said couch & futon. Not comfortable at all. No where to sit comfortably. Two TV’s but nothing to watch. Didn’t watch no tv. Needs kitchen sink to wash dishes. The stairs were terrible for us. No handrail & several. Not good for elderly or handicap, plus carrying luggage up & down several steps. Bad parking. Very unhappy. Not as advertised. Hidden fees etc.

About the host

Hosted by Sergio Bernal

Host profile image
I have owned this property since 2012 and this rental space was just remodeled in July 2019. I am usually around and can accommodate you with towels or blankets if you need extras. I love living in San Diego and have lived here all my life so if you need ideas or would like to know what is around I can let you know.

Why they chose this property

If you are looking for a place where you are only 15 min away from downtown and want to save some money, this is a great place to come.

What makes this property unique

The Trolley or train which is the city transportation is only a 2 mile walk or a 1 min drive and you can leave your car in a public parking lot right in front of the trolley if you plan on not paying for parking downtown. It can get pricey.
