"We were in San Diego to explore colleges with our son and to get to know the area to see if our son could see himself living here. The cottage was a great location to be able to visit colleges and get an idea of what it could be like to live in the San Diego area. The cottage itself was walkable to restaurants, the beach and markets and centrally located to visit other areas by car. While there is noise from the airport and the street, it didn't bother us as we took it to be part of the city...

10/10 Excellent
"A great property that is well taken care of. The staff care about the customers and the location is beautiful. It is a small hotel near the water, away from the crazy traffic, bustle of downtown, noise. We have stayed here 3 times already and will definitely stay again. A great value for the money."
