Perfect location for Hillcrest
The property is perfect for one or two people. It's cute, and so close to all things in Hillcrest. I did not need a car for nothing in Hillcrest. Short Uber ride to Zoo and other attractions.

Clean and quaint quarters within walking distance to anything you need. Visited my son and family and provided the perfect spot to spend the night. No television but no need for one. Bed, coffee, fridge, kitchenette, microwave, chairs and counter, and spacious bathroom with many toiletries. Detailed instructions provided by host. Thanks again!

Beautiful Stay
My partner and I were visiting San Diego for my birthday and our 3rd wedding anniversary. The location of the studio apartment is absolutely perfect. We walked all over Balboa Park, we walked to tons of different spots for food, coffee, and entertainment. And it was so lovely to see so many people like us walking around (wonderful queer folk). We felt safe, we were able to completely disconnect from work, and we are already planning another trip back.

Nice little place
Accurate as described! Great neighborhood, everything needed within a few blocks distance. Nice touches with extra plugs ins, fan, ac, medium sized fridge, microwave, toaster, small coffee maker, soap, shampoo, long mirror. Andrew was super friendly and gave suggestions for fun things to check out. We were out and about most of day so perfect spot for evening relaxing and place to sleep. Just as other noted from other comments, upstairs noise (if other bnb is occupied and traffic pretty noisy. Used earphones and was able to sleep though. Bed is pretty comfy.

Amazing
We didn’t go into this with any crazy expectations. But upon arriving we were just two blocks from amazing food places and easy freeway access. Inside the property itself was really clean and had so many different amenities. The host had forks, iron, coffee, etc. You name it and the host had it ready for you. We had the pleasure of meeting Andrew. And he was such a nice and easy going guy. Very pleasant and cared about our experience in San Diego. Only recommendation I could find is to have a full body mirror for the ladies as that was the only thing needed while getting ready. Everything was great though and we definitely want to come back and do it again!

Comfortable Stay Close to Everything in San Diego
Property was clean and comfortable. Great location within a short drive to everything in San Diego. Freeway noise was negated by air conditioner. Some noise early in the morning could be heard from upstairs. All in all, nice place to stay. I'd recommend to anyone wanting to see all San Diego has to offer.

My first vrbo.
Very small quarters with freeway noise 25 feet away. Towels were thread worn and 12 in. step to maneuver into bathroom could be difficult at night time. Active little boy upstairs can be heard playing and parking can be difficult on garbage day pickup. Otherwise, location was good for walking and restaurants.

Superb location in the heart of Hillcrest. But it is right ON the freeway, so it’s very noisy even with earplugs. Also the only seating in the place is two barstools. If you’re ok with the noise, then go for it.

Room is well maintained, albeit somewhat loud with freeway noise. Andrew is very accommodating and responds quickly to all requests. Parking is an issue. It is a small neighborhood with many residents/rentals and only has limited street parking.

Fun studio, close to everything, but...
This is a fun studio, but very Spartan. The good: spacious, well stocked kitchenette, great accessibility and location to stores, restaurants, Zoo and Balboa Park; Andrew (host) is great to work with--very responsive and accommodating. The not-so-good: no chair for dressing, reading, or relaxing; no TV; stools too high to allow comfortable seating at the counter; gaps in windows make freeway noise even more noticeable; shower curtain needs a good scrubbing. Nit picking for sure, but if you spend a lot of time in the unit, these things matter.
