This little bungalow was quite charming, all in all. Our stay was, all in all, mostly quite pleasant. I'm a native San Diegan, and revisiting the history of the 2nd international exhibition in Balboa Park through the artifacts and decor was fascinating. The property is quite compact, but for a couple it's more than sufficient.
There are just a couple of minor nits that kept the place from being absolutely perfect, but it would not keep us from recommending the place to others:
There is no dedicated parking. We were successful enough at finding on-street parking, but that was somewhat aided by the fact that we have handicapped parking privileges and there is a dedicated handicapped spot at the end of the block. Visiting without a car and car-sharing instead is quite reasonable given where the place is located. I was able to comfortably walk to Walgreens and Starbucks and passed a number of other restaurants and shops on my way.
The mattress on the bed was quite soft for us, but that may be a matter of personal preference.
Lastly, we sort of thought the place was a bit musty when we arrived, but we've stayed in a lot of places in San Diego, and it seems to be fairly universal. What helped a lot was that the split unit air conditioner in the unit that had a "dry" setting on it. That made a big difference.
