"Bill and Tiffany were exceptional hosts! I stayed at their apartment attached to a historic mansion in San Diego, and it was an incredible experience. Tiffany arranged discounted zoo tickets for me, and Bill went the extra mile by spending additional time to ensure the hot tub was sparkling clean. The property itself was amazing, located in a great neighborhood. I enjoyed grilling in the backyard every night. Even though it was just me, they treated me like royalty. I wish I could give them ten...

"Great property. Bath towels were a little scarce but sufficient for 2. Heating instructions were absent and when contacted the host we could not turn on the pilot after given instructions, there was no response. Overall fantastic place snd would stay there again!"

"The room was clean and well-furnished. There was a small table with 4 benches as well as a TV that we didn't use. The mattress was very comfortable, but the pillows were strangely thick. It would be nice to have some thinner pillows as well for side sleepers like myself. The second bed was a futon that would probably be too short for the average adult to sleep comfortably. A mini fridge, microwave, and basic cutlery are provided. Those was very helpful for eating leftovers throughout the trip....

"We booked this place over Christmas holidays and it didn’t disappoint. It’s very clean and the location is very good, everything is a 5-10min drive for food and entertainment, but there are options within walking distance as well. The communication is top notch with the owner and will definitely book here if we come back!"

The hot tub was an added bonus after walking around all day. Having off-street parking was also great to have. I looking forward to staying here again."

"Host is very hospitable and accommodating. Outstanding communication from her! Some of the following may not be issues for some people but I want to be transparent. There were a few things that were misleading from the posting. Pictures misrepresenting as the grounds were weedy and needed a little love. Possibly due to recent storms. The bed felt more like a full than a queen. There are two stairs to get into bedroom/bath where the posting said it was ground level (might be an issue for...

"Unit was clean, super convenient location and having the parking space was wonderful. Love that we could walk to Balboa Park. Easy access to San Diego’s sights. Overall comfortable space. Two minor bits to be aware of as renters - one that the large TV in the king bedroom makes it difficult to get into the bed. Perhaps a smaller TV? The pull out couch was not very comfortable - but how many pull outs really are??"

"Canyon View is aptly named - the views of the canyon below are unbeatable! The neighborhood is very walkable. There are even grocery stores within 15 minutes on foot. I probably wouldn’t even rent a car next time! Property was clean, beautifully updated, had all the amenities anyone could want. Would definitely recommend this property for a friend or even stay there again myself!"

"I found this apartment at the last minute so myself and friend could attend the funeral services for another friend's father. The apartment was perfect for the two of us. We each had our own room and it was so close to a bunch of very cool places in North Park, which was also very convenient for all the places we visited that weekend. Anna was great about check-in and check-out process. I would certainly stay here again! Thanks"

"We chose this location near OLD Town San Diego to be closer to fun of old San Diego. We are foodies and there are plenty of great restaurants nearby. The dwelling is well stocked with everything. We were able to bring our 2 dogs, and they could play in the enclosed backyard. The neighborhood was safe enough to walk them at night. The 3 of us shared the 1 bathroom in the main living area. A separate bedroom with a bunk bed was nice for privacy. Parking was convenient. We would stay here again!"

"My sister and I stayed at the house for a week, this was our first trip to San Diego. The house was BEAUTIFUL! It was well stocked, had a lovely and very private backyard, and plenty of space to relax. The beds were so comfortable and the home was so cozy. We were centrally located to all the things we wanted to experience, Coronado Island, Old Town, Little Italy, La Jolla, and Balboa Park to name a few. Lael could not have been kinder or more accommodating. We will definitely stay at his place...

"Great location! Comfortable, clean, safe, and easy covered parking! The bunk beds and extra room was perfect for our teen boys! Nice buffet breakfast and pool (and hot tub) as well. We had issues with noise next door one night, but security was quick to take care of it. We would definitely stay here again."
