We could easily walk to Balboa park and neighborhood restaurants. The basic amenities were sufficient to allow us to make a few meals in the kitchen. The bedrooms are quiet and comfortable. ##### Scott C. Stayed 8 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Denis k. Sep 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Get away weekend We really enjoyed staying at this property. It was close to Balboa Park and freeway access to get anywhere else like downtown restaurants or the beach. It was a hot weekend so really appreciated the AC at night. Make sure you are aware there are steps to get up to the house. But once up there, there is a nice view of the neighborhood. The secluded patio in the. back was also a nice place to read in the evenings or early in the morning when it was cooler. ##### Denis k.

We wanted a place with easy access to the freeway and different attractions. We loved the space and amenities. There was a great kitchen, washer and dryer, comfortable living room and a nice private outdoor space. We both noticed how comfortable the beds were as well. There was always ample parking on the street. We also walked up to the Hillcrest Farmer’s Market on Sunday morning. The hosts were easy to communicate with and responded promptly to my questions and requests. I would stay here again if I was in San Diego! ##### Jackie C.
