Jun 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely stay in the historic post office loft The post office loft was in close proximity of the San Diego zoo, USS Midway, and more! ##### Andrea S. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Virginia R. Mar 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Not yout typical rental We stayed at this property for three nights. We were pleased to find that it was in a safe neighborhood and that the host was very responsive. Everything in the home was in great working order. I was impressed by the quality of the furnishings, appliances, cookware, right down to the hairdryer (T3! probably a $150 dryer). Our favorite part of the rental was using the fire pit in the courtyard. It was nice to be able to gather and enjoy the company of our group without being disturbed. I would definitely stay at this property again if I were to return to San Diego. ##### Virginia R. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yvette W. Aug 21, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### East, convenient, spacious place to stay Great place to stay in SD. Best thing — covered RESERVED parking spot. Huge plus. Especially since street parking is usually full, and we got upgraded with our rental vehicle (yes, thankful for the full size SUV, but parallel parking?? Lol ) The kitchen has everything you need — all the dishes, dishwasher, full refrig, and washer and dryer. Family room + TV— kids were able to pull up Netflix, HBO plus, etc everything we have at home. Beds are very comfortable. Much of SD is in the flight pattern, so we greatly appreciated the white noise machines! All in all, a very easy place to stay. We will rebook when we come back. ##### Yvette W.
