A place a couple can enjoy

The casita is well located in a very welcoming area of San Diego. Very quiet and comfortable. The place is well appointed and isgreat for a couple to enjoy the city. Located near to nice cafes and coffee shops. Grocery store is nearby. Street traffic is non existent so it is peaceful. Surprising place for one being located so close to the city.

Perfect for us

The casita was clean and well-stocked; it had everything we needed. It was the perfect size for two people. The beds (including sofa bed) were comfortable. The neighborhood was surprisingly quiet for being so close to a major road. It was great to have private parking. It is within a few-block walk to restaurants/bars.

Loved our stay here! This is our second stay in North Park and we will be back if the owner will have us. It’s so peaceful and cozy we barely wanted to go anywhere. But there is plenty to do close by and convenient as well. Charming casita with everything needed for a pleasant stay. Thank you!!

Everything we wanted and more

This was a great property. Everything in the listing and some extras. The location was perfect with walking distance to stores and restaurants, just a stone's throw from Balboa Park and the Zoo. Quiet, clean, and restful. Our host responded quickly the couple times we had questions. Would 100% recommend to a couple or a couple friends visiting San Diego.

All the comforts of home!

My husband and I recently spent a week in San Diego, and really enjoyed our stay. The casita was very comfortable, had what we needed, and provided a space to regroup at the end of our long days. The neighborhood had some good places to eat and get morning coffee within a short walk. I look forward to staying at this very comfortable home again on my next visit to SD.

Great property & great stay!

Very nice, well maintained, clean property, located in a nice quiet neighborhood. Very convenient location to restaurants, grocery stores, shopping areas and greater San Diego. We really enjoyed staying in this "Casita", everything was perfect and as promised. We will definitely stay here on our next visit to San Diego and will highly recommend this rental to our family and friends. Nancy was very responsive with communication and a pleasure to deal with.

Perfect North Park location

Quick trip for me, my wife and a friend. We used to live in North Park and wanted to stay in the same area. Perfect little place. Nice. Quiet property being behind the main property. Short walk to all the food, coffee or bars. The zoo is walkable. All in all very good place.

Worked Well For Us

My husband and I were in San Diego to celebrate our friends' 40th wedding anniversary. Since we were seeing people in several parts of the county, we ended up eating there and not in the neighborhood where we were staying. When we were at the "casita", we stayed in and cooked there. The kitchen is well equipped. It was too hot to be outside. The house holds heat and gets rather warm during the day (no blind on western kitchen door). There is AC and it works quickly. The only drawback for me (not my husband) was not having a luggage rack. I travel a lot and prefer to live out of my suitcase; I never use a chest of drawers. There was some trouble communicating with the owner on our day of travel, but once we were in San Diego we didn't encounter any other communication issues. The guys living in the front house are very welcoming. The driveway isn't for everybody. We drove a Hundai Sonata and barely fit with enough room for us to get out (e.g., inches).

If u are looking for San Diego traditional living style this is it. Private parking clean area home is a small cottage for four!!! It was just everything I needed!!! The bed was like sleeping on a cloud. Small night sky u can use a remote for. And walking distance to coffee shops, food and a laundromat! Even though the property has its own to use. A block from a grocery store. It was just everything I needed!!

Wife and I had a great time staying here. Casita has some privacy from the road, which was nice. Grocery store, gas station, a nice coffee shop, and a great Mexican place just a couple blocks away. Casita was well stocked with towels, soaps, pots and pans, and basic cooking supplies like oil and seasonings. Would absolutely recommend staying here while visiting the San Diego area. Home owner was very prompt and helpful with questions over VRBO.
