San Diego Family VAc

The property had adequate listings as far as sleeping accomodations are concerned. Worked perfectly as far as having a family and needing sleeping for 6, refridgerator, kitchen, extra bedding/linens, and laundry available. Great view of downtown San Diego. A lot of homeless / transient traffic in the immediate neighborhood. Great mexican food nearby. Relatively close to grocery stores and the buzz of downtown. Building is a victorian charm but definitely needs some cosmetic upgrades throughout. Host is good at communicating!

Great house, great location for city folks

I love the city (cities in general and SD specifically) and this apartment was perfect for us. Great location (#3 & #5 bus stops right there on corner), street parking looks crowded sometimes but we always found a spot. Jack in the Box is a 45 second WALK up the street (if you walk fast like me.) Taco place across the street from them. Host was always available, whenever I called (only twice.) We walked every day around the neighborhood and it was great. Easy access to I-5 North and CA94 East, Wonderful visit. We stay there again if we visit SD.

The owner was nice and receptive. The place was clean and kept up. The off street parking was questionable at times with finding a spot and the homeless. Market St was very loud alot of the time. What was nice was that we were close to alot of highways and popular places to go to, plus the airport.

Cozy and conveniently located

The unit was just right for my family. It provided all the necessary amenities and the location to everything was ideal. My kids loved the loft which gave them privacy and personal space. John was very responsive and checked in with us to see if we were enjoying our stay and if there was anything we needed. The unit is smaller than how it looks in the photos but we liked that cozy feeling. There is only street parking but it was not an issue to find a spot within a block away. If you are a light sleeper, the unit is on a busy road and you will hear everything from people walking by to sirens passing through the streets. There were quite a few homeless people in the area with some rummaging through the trash cans but they minded their own business. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and the location to everything was a bonus.

Wonderful Visit

I stayed here for 5 days with 3 teenagers. It was nice to have space to spread out and not have to sleep in the same room with each other. Everyone said that they much preferred staying here than at a hotel. The property was in a great location - about 1 mile to Gas Lamp and PetCo Park. We were able to walk to the the Padres game - it is about a mile downhill and a mile back up it. It was also close to I-5 which made it very easy to get to other attractions - only 10 minute drive to Coronado, Sea World, Zoo, Old Town. Parking was on the street and we did have to park a few times around the block- but it was an easy 2-3 minute walk. There were a few homeless people down the street that we saw while walking to and from downtown but they didn't bother anyone. It is on a busy road in a big city so you will hear traffic. We really enjoyed our stay. Beds were comfortable and unit was clean.

Good accommodations for reasonable price

My family of 5 enjoyed our stay in Unit#4. The place was very clean and we had everything necessary to keep us comfortable. It was a pretty warm week when we visited but the unit was nice and airy once we opened the windows in the living area and bedroom. The unit also provided other things that we were able to enjoy such as two portable chairs and a boogie board. There’s also complimentary sugar and coffee grounds which was very appreciated since we arrived late in the evening and didn’t have time to stop at the grocery store before heading to the home. My husband and I were able to wake up and enjoy freshly brewed coffee in the morning. We didn’t require much from the owner since we didn’t run into any issues but he was very nice and did checkin with us the second day just to make sure we were ok. If I had any complaints at all, which is no fault of the owner, one of the neighbor is very loud and can be heard late in the night arguing so we had to sleep with the windows closed every night since I’m a light sleeper. Also, the street parking was a little challenging some nights but overall, still a good and comfortable stay.

Excellent Vacation Rental

This is a very nice unit, we liked it a lot and will definitely stay here again, though it’s not as perfect as it looks in the pictures, but it is a cozy and enjoyable place to stay. John (the owner) is a great host, responded to my messages in a timely manner and took care of an issue with the main entrance door. I want to say that the only issue we had was the parking, there’s no private parking available, we had to park about a block or so away a few times during our stay and the best thing in this unit was the shower, I love it!! Thank you, John!

Girls' Trip to San Diego

We celebrated the last weekend before "back to school" with a trip from the East Coast to San Diego (Red Sox might have been involved too!). This apartment fit the bill - good location, very comfortable, and an accommodating owner. It's smaller than it looks in the photos, and the spiral staircase would be difficult to navigate for some. This is the middle of a big city, so be prepared for it to be a little loud. The neighborhood - while walking distance to Petco and the Gaslamp - is a bit rough in places so walking not recommended at night. But it was comfortable and worked perfectly for us. The owner responded very quickly to the one maintenance issue we had, which was very much appreciated and the guests in the other apartments seemed very nice as well.

Nice

We rented this property for a weekend get together and it was a nice place to kick back and relax. The kitchen is small and not meant for gourmet meals, but is adequately equipped with nice and well maintained appliances. The loft area is small and can be warm unless you use the fan and a/c which is a little noisy. It is located near but (in my opinion) not walking distance to entertainment and dining venues.

Moms 75th Birthday

We had a great time at John’s property. And most importantly, my mom really enjoyed it. We came into town for her 75th birthday bash and she thought the house was just gorgeous. She took the bedroom, I took the loft, and my boyfriend slept on the couch (my mom is old fashioned hehe) The loft upstairs was super fun and the location of the house was great!!! John communicated really well through our whole stay. Thanks John!!!
