Joy's cottage was perfect for our two-night stay in San Diego. She was quick to respond to text message questions and even let us borrow her hairdryer -- much appreciated since we were four women getting ready for New Years Eve! The place is quiet, and the surrounding South Park neighborhood has cute cafes and shops. It's also only a 10 minute drive to the Gaslamp area, so a cheap ride back after a night out, even with surge pricing. The two dogs are very friendly and playful too. Overall, I would recommend Joy's cottage for anyone who is planning to spend most of their time out and about and just looking for a quiet place to sleep at night.
