The cottage was lovely. It had complete privacy and good comfort. It was clean and convenient. We were doing work close by for a week and the cottage had a work space separate from the bedroom that was convenient. The location is not right in the heart of SD, but was very close to the client we were working with, and yet only 15 minutes from Balboa Park by car. The kitchen was small but completely functional. We didn't have time to use the swimming pool but it was nice to look at during breakfast on the balcony deck. There are grocery stores close by as well as several nice restaurants. Next time I go back to San Diego I'll be staying there again for sure.
