    Everything at the Mansion was perfect and just as expected! It was an ideal location for our group as we were there to see the sights of San Diego. It was centrally located and absolutely a stunning home! Thank you Ricardo for being such a fabulous host!

    Beautiful location for spring break! We enjoyed the property and the location to Sea World, Zoo and great food! The historic home is subdivided into 3 units but was well done so that it still feels very private. The common area is downstairs and all of the bedrooms are upstairs so need to be good with climbing up and down. The hot tub was so nice to have at the end of the day touring around!

    Host was super responsive. The included soaps, shampoos and laundry detergent was very helpful. The house is in a super cute and safe neighborhood. Unfortunately we probably got the 5 days of rain all February otherwise the yard games would have been great for our down time.

    This is an excellent property in a fantastic location. It is just as described in the listing. Very clean and inviting. Minutes away from Balboa park and 20-30 minutes from almost anything you would want to see.

    The property was beautiful and very well maintained. The AC had a problem right when we got there (in the evening) and the owner had it fixed first thing the next morning. There were a ton of games and things to do out on the yard, and everything was in good condition. Best of all, the owner’s attentiveness and communication were top-notch…the best we’ve ever had with a VRBO. I even dropped an earring down the sink at 6pm, and Ricardo had a plumber out to the house by 7:30pm. Simply outstanding service. The house was also very close to most San Diego attractions. We will definitely look to stay here again the next time we visit San Diego!

    The location is excellent, convenient to Balboa Park, downtown San Diego, Mission Hills. Ricardo provided an outstanding list of recommended restaurants and activities. He was immediately responsive to any needs, such as icemaker, more kitchen towels, etc.The front outdoor area was great for entertaining. We seniors had to take extra care using the steep staircase to and from the bedrooms.

The host was very responsive and thorough with information needed. Beds were all really comfortable. The Nesprsso pods were a nice treat, thank you!

    We enjoyed our stay at this property. It has four rooms each with two beds or king beds. There is a crib but it is located in a bright area so you may want to bring something to cover over it if you plan to use it. The unit is functional and suited our needs. The hot tub worked fine and the yard games were nice. There are two places to park which are conveniently located. The location is great and is a short drive to a lot of places to eat and points of interest. The walls are thin, so you have to be mindful of noise. All-in-all, it was a good experience. A very clean, well-kept place.

    My family and I had a wonderful and comfortable stay at Zen Mansion. We were all impressed in the detailed attention given to decor and cleanliness. Ricardo, our host, responded swiftly to my questions and the entire check-in & checkout process was easy. He provided us with copious instructions & even gave us a list of fun things to do in the area (along with eateries). Thank you Ricardo!

    The place was space. Spacious, great location, easy check-in/check-out. The only downer was that the internet was down from WED when we arrived until Friday afternoon at 5PM. This prevented some who had to work and others to use the television. Other than that, great stay!

    This house is gorgeous and welcoming. We had a wonderful time relaxing in the beautiful yard and spacious living room. There were enough beds for all. When we needed beach towels, the hosts brought them right over. The only thing we were surprised about is that the listing was not a full house, as there were other guests in another section of the home. Still, our area was very private and we hardly saw or heard the other guests.
