This has to be one of the best Airbnb experiences we’ve ever had thanks to the hosts. Their place is absolutely charming—cozy but not small, stylish, and well-appointed. Sometimes a place is great because it’s in the right location, and other times it’s because the space is pleasant. This tranquil escape had it all: It was an inviting hangout in which to relax with great shops and restaurants in walking distance and everything else no more than a 10-minute drive. We came to San Diego for Comic-con but always looked forward to returning to Laurie and Andy’s place to recharge a great night’s sleep. And if you like to exercise, the legendary Balboa Park is just a quick jog through fun, hip neighborhoods. Laurie never let more than five minutes pass before answering any questions I had ahead of our stay, and the set of directions she provided on arrival told us everything we needed to know. We can’t say thanks enough for making our stay so perfect.
