Great location, enjoyed our stay
The home is located exactly where we wanted to be to visit the museums and not too far to reach the beach. Was shocked how quickly we could get to the zoo. Probably saved us tons of time not having to navigate through CA traffic. We had a wonderful time and appreciated the house. The house is well setup and quite comfortable. It’s clean and nice to find someone that doesn’t cheap out on the little stuff such as toilet paper. The only slight issue was parking on the street but it’s not bad.

Fabulous stay in University Heights
We enjoyed every moment of our 6 night stay. Although it is a compact space, the well equiped casita felt quite roomy and with the outdoor areas, positively spacious. We were travelling without a car and with the use of Uber and a few buses were able to get easily get everywhere we wanted. Trader Joe’s and Ralph’s are a walkable distance away via the Vermont St pedestrian bridge. We did have an issue with the mechanism on the sofa bed failing, but appreciated Amanda’s fast response to provide an alternative. Happy memories of evenings spent in the outdoor spaces here will linger.

All the outside furniture needs replacing they had holes in them and and they could use a bug Light because the Flies were horrendous on the patio and the spiral staircase needs more lighting and the couch would have been nice if it was a L shape not enough seating for four adults

A great place to stay in San Diego!
My group and I loved the location of this place. It right in the middle on San Diego and there is so much to do with such a short drive away. You can tell this place is very well maintained. We would definitely book again!

Above and beyond our expectation!
The place was more than enough for what we needed. Everything we needed was there. It was clean and well furnished. (The one item we noticed was the picture of the dome needs to be updated. The dome cover is not clear as shown but we could still stargaze from the front. We were not disappointed at all.) The rooftop patio including the dome was very enjoyable. The area was quiet and the weather was perfect. The location is also perfect. The owner left good guidelines for us and made themselves available if we needed anything. We will definitely come back!

A great landing pad to explore San Diego as a family
My husband, daughter (13), son (10) and I all thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We had everything we needed and plenty of space for our 4 night stay. The roof patio was a major highlight, and we enjoyed playing games as a family most nights. Centrally located and in a safe and quiet neighborhood, we found this to be an ideal spot from which to explore all San Diego has to offer!

The property was exactly as described. Perfect and plenty of room for my wife, 16 year old son and I. We enjoyed outside area to eat breakfast in the morning and rooftop patio to relax after running around. The best part is this space comes with all the amenities of home. The location is perfect. Close to many attractions… If you are thinking about booking, just do it before you miss out.

We wanted for NOTHING. Everything was included, and we appreciated all the extras. Hosts were wonderfully available when we had a big storm, and all storm related items were perfectly addressed within hours. It was so nice to sit back, enjoy, and spend quality time at night without worrying about hotel neighbors, noise or annoyance. The convenience of a kitchen and washing machine was great. Made everything VERY EASY. Thank you again, when we return we will book again! Highly recommend.

Spring Break
Tons of space for two adults and two teens. Location really is close to everything you could want - beach, zoo, downtown, restaurants. Loved the rooftop for morning coffee and the patio table for when we wanted some shade. And best of all it’s stocked with all the little things that make a home away from home comfortable: beach towels, chairs and umbrella, a cooler and ice packs, toiletries, extra towels, and a great assortment of kitchen basics. Would definitely stay again!

Cute and comfy
This was an excellent stay. Everything was exactly as described. The hosts were responsive and left excellent instructions for operating the electronics. The decor was fun (that mirror in the hallway!! ❤️). The bed and couch were comfortable and we loved having the patio off the bedroom - and of course the rooftop! What a wonderful place to sit in the San Diego sun drinking your morning coffee. As an added bonus, this place had every amenity you could think of, from sun screen to snacks. While we didn’t get a chance to walk around the neighborhood at all, there was a corner store a block away which was nice. The apartment was easy to find and we felt safe. Highly recommend.

Fantastic place and loved our stay!
What a place! The rooftop balcony with the igloo was spacious and well, just cool … inside fixed up very nice and we felt very safe in and outside . There’s even a neighborhood market / wine store just up the block that made everything so convenient since we relied on Uber for everything else. Close to restaurants in University Heights and Hillcrest… we would definitely stay here again - Amanda was a wonderful host! We really didn’t need anything at all but happen to run in to her and very friendly and quick to give dinner suggestions (at our request) that was greatly appreciated … be sure to read how to get to your entrance - it’s on the backside of the property down an ally . We just read it a little late so my friend arrived a bit before us so it took us a min but that was totally on us. Thank you for a memorable time in San Diego, Amanda!
