We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Michelle’s place. Traveling with my teen I can get pretty concerned over safety, and we both felt totally safe. We loved being greeted by her doggies and her partner Peter was very nice. The value of the place let us enjoy more of San Diego, and helped me stay on budget. I’d definitely book again.
My suggestion for good coffee in the area is Seven Seas Roasting co which is in North Park and a 5 min drive. Theres also a super cute Target, and if you plan on going to Balboa Park, you can take the scenic route by the golf course.
