    We picked this home to be our sanctuary during Comic Con. It was well-appointed, super clean and cute, and in a great location. We appreciated the off-street parking for two smaller SUVs, and the central AC was greatly appreciated. Comfy beds, soft towels, and a great living area to unwind in. Quiet neighborhood. House had lots of amenities that we didn’t use but it was cool to see them: beach towels, baby items and gates. The stairs are steep - not a problem for adults. We really liked staying here!

    The home was lovely and worked great for my family's stay in San Diego. Very comfortable accommodations and no small detail was missed. The homeowner was communicative and helpful and quickly jumped on a small (quite inconsequential) inconvenience when brought to her attention. I certainly recommend this property to anyone looking for a quiet, comfortable home right in the heart of San Diego.

    Overall we were very happy with our stay at this house in Hillcrest. It was very clean and comfortable and plenty of space for our party of seven; five adults and two children. We rented a car but many places were within walking distance. The house was very comfortable to return to after a long day on our outings. Great place! Thank you!

    The house was well appointed and very cozy. The outdoor spaces are lovely. The neighborhood is perfect - short walk to restaurants and shops yet quiet. The bathrooms are newly remodeled and very nice - bidets in both bathrooms was a major bonus :-) Would definitely stay again.

    This house was beautiful and comfortable. It’s the nicest VRBO I have ever stayed at. Jane was a pleasure to work with too.

    This is an amazing property on a quiet street but walkable to great Hillcrest spots. Kitchen was well stocked and there were thoughtful touches throughout. Also loved the two outdoor spaces!

    We stayed in two different VRBO properties in San Diego, and the first thing my son said walking into this property was this is so much nicer than our last place! The bedrooms were great and the kitchen had everything we needed. The bathrooms had all the basic toiletries and everyone liked the heated toilet seats! The outdoor areas were so cute - too bad it rained too much for us to use them. Hillcrest is a very convenient location for seeing all of San Diego! I highly recommend staying at this rental!

    The home was beautiful. Located in a very nice neighborhood . We enjoyed the proximity to a lot of the downtown attractions/activities and the beach . The only negatives were that there were small spiders and spider webs in the downstairs bedrooms , a drawer was missing a handle and a remote had no batteries. The batteries were dropped off to us as soon as we made the property manager aware so that was very nice . Overall a great rental for a family getaway !
