So Sweet and convenient

The apartment is roomy, clean, and quiet. Great beds every bedroom and a wonderful rain shower in the master bath. We loved the neighborhood and got 3 really good meals in 3 different restaurants in the University Heights area a block away. it's also located just 1 block from Park St. with a direct and easy 10 minute drive to Balboa Park, where we spent several days.

Girl’s weekend

We had a great stay at this property and it was an ideal location to uber everywhere in San Diego. Host provided excellent directions to access the property and I felt safe arriving alone late at night. We requested a hairdryer during our stay and a brand new one was delivered within a couple of hours. Thanks for a great long weekend!

Great location!

Our stay was great! The neighborhood was walkable to lots of restaurants and shops and a quick drive to downtown. Perfect size for 3 of us to have our own bedroom and bath, and the host was very responsive to questions, usually answering within minutes. Place was clean and the check in and out were easy. Would definitely stay again!

Perfect Location

This house was the perfect location for me and my family. With walking distance to coffee, shops and restaurants. Short drive to the zoo and other great San Diego attractions. The recently renovated home was clean and beautiful. Will definitely stay here again on our next trip to San Diego.

This was our first experience with vrbo and appreciated so much that because of that reason we were able to communicate with the agent directly. The location is close to Mission and Pacific beaches and no more than 15 minutes from entertainment, shopping and great restaurants. We would stay here again and recommend their service.

Family Vacation

Me, my husband, my sister and her husband had a great stay. We loved that this property had 2 king sized beds, which is what sold me on the rental. Seems very rare to find that! The location was also great, convenient to so many things. The zoo was 7 mins away, and every beach was 15-20 mins away. We would stay again if we ever make it back to San Diego!

Uptown Retreat

From booking to departure, communication was outstanding. From comfortable beds and wonderful linens, to an updated living area, this property had everything we needed. For our needs, the space and location were perfect. Quick and easy access to many areas of San Diego, often without need of the highway, allowed us to spend time seeing and doing, not waiting in traffic.

Terrific location

A comfortable place. Management could have cleaned the windows and outside area as it was unusable due to dirt. Dryer filter was dangerously full. Kitchen was well appointed but had no cutting board A former review said the hot water was an issue but we had plenty of hot water for showering. The kitchen sink didn’t get hot water tho. Over all a very nice stay !! I would highly recommend I will definitely stay here next visit!

Great Location and Space

This property was perfect for our visit and close enough to the zoo for us to do a mid-day break with the kids and go back in the evening. We loved the proximity of coffee, ice cream, and restaurants so we were able to walk without loading everyone up into the car! The home was clean and well maintained. The only thing that would take this space up a notch is a little TLC on the patio outside of the bedroom. We would have loved to have somewhere to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful weather; and while there are chairs, it isn't somewhere you would want to sit - yet! This would be a great upgrade so folks can enjoy a cup of coffee or glass of wine outside. Overall, highly recommend staying here!

Family vacation

Pros: easy access into property, clean, prompt response from owner Cons: property listing sleeps 6 with 2 showers. We are a family of five and the fourth and fifth person had to take lukewarm and cold showers. On our next day we made sure to take quick showers and still ended up with cold and lukewarm water by the fourth and fifth persons turn. Also, listing offered a potential discount to Frontline workers, and to inquire about this. When I did, I did not qualify because I booked outside a timeframe to receive this discount (within 60 days). I was told this is left purposely ambiguous as certain months and booking times will not qualify, and that is why you have to inquire. So, the advertisement that the frontline worker may qualify for a discount is always at the discretion of the renter, depending on the timeframe (booking time and month of booking). In essence, he’s grateful for Frontline workers when it is convenient for him, which is not how gratitude works in my opinion, and still wants credit for the offer.

Very well located property

The property is very well located, close to the restaurants and bars in University Heights. There is also a playground about 2 blocks away. We liked the bedrooms and especially liked the water pressure in the showers. There was enough room for our 3 and a half grandson to play in. The property management was attentive to our needs.

Loved this place!

We stayed here during a spring break trip to SD. Comfortable and quiet with all the amenities you would need. Plenty of space to spread out for my wife and our 2 adult kids. Neighborhood is great and the property manager was super responsive to all of our questions. Good Omen coffee shop right at the corner was a great find. Would highly recommend!!!
