The listing description of this bungalow was very accurate. Nathan (host) could not have made me feel more welcome. As I was arriving there after dark, he had left the front porch light on for me, which was very considerate, and clear instructions on how to let myself in the front door. This was my first Airbnb experience and he wanted everything to be perfect. When I wrote beforehand to ask if the kitchen had a coffee maker, he assured me it did, and that there would be coffee. When I arrived, there was a quart of half and half in the refrigerator so I wouldn't have to get that after I arrived.

I would definitely choose to stay in this bungalow/cottage if it's available the next time I visit my family in San Diego. It's a quiet neighborhood (I was there beginning on a Saturday night through Monday night), I was never disturbed by noisy neighbors or barking dogs. Although I was by myself on this trip, the bungalow is big enough for a couple, or for an adult and a child. Staying there reminded me of how I felt in my grandmother's house which was very neat and comfortable and cozy.

There's a welcome book in the front room of the bungalow with listings of nearby restaurants, cafes, and a grocery store. I liked that I could walk to many of these places, and it was a short Uber ride to Balboa Park and the San Diego Zoo.
