About the host

Why they chose this property
Casa San Diego was designed to be lively, colorful, and inviting, with its own California flavor. Lots of primary colors and fun patterns in the bedrooms and living area, plus rich hardwood floors and mid-century-inspired design.
Bedrooms include 2 with queen-size beds and one in addition with a twin-over-twin. A fold-out sofa sleeps 2 more for up to 8 guests total - perfect for multi-family trips and couples getaways. You can pack light: there’s a coin-operated washer and dryer in the basement.
Take your morning coffee to the balcony, which has a view of North Park. Gather for a BBQ in the backyard (shared with the other two units) with a BBQ grill, outdoor seating, yard games...even a hammock. Or cook inside: the kitchen is fully equipped and stocked as completely as my own kitchen at home.
Other goodies at the apartment: Free WiFi throughout, a fireplace and a flat-screen TV with Netflix.
Stay in or head out; eat, drink and play in North Park or downtown in the Gaslamp; relax on the balcony, in front of the fireplace or enjoy the sweeping views. And most importantly - have fun! (And let me know how I can help.)
