My best friend and I had a wonderful experience in San Diego with Tara! It was our first time to the city and Tara's cute place was the perfect home base from which to explore and relax.
The downstairs apartment was so peaceful and just the right amount of space, plus it was stocked with everything we needed - dishes, silverware, knives, mini fridge, microwave, shampoo/conditioner/soap in the shower, etc. It's only a few minutes' walk away from the beach as well as restaurants, coffee stands, and lots of kiosks selling fresh fruit smoothies and delicious acai bowls. Also, be sure to check out the amazing vegetarian food co-op right down the street!
Tara was a great host and very helpful in pointing us in the direction of fun places to explore. We also loved her kitty, Roxy...she showed us the right way to bask in the San Diego sun! We highly recommend Tara's place.
