I HIGHLY recommend you booking Kat's place. I have so many wonderful things about Kat as a host and her house as a home-away-from-home. I stayed with Kat for a whole month while I was relocating to San Diego and it was absolutely perfect from the start. The location is so convenient; I could walk to work in the Gaslamp district and hop on the expressway to get to the beach. Kat is so kind, compassionate, and warm. She answered all my questions, gave me excellent food recommendations, and truly made me feel San Diego was my new city. Her dog Phoenix is the absolute sweetest pup with the most calming presence. My dog Lucy and her bonded so quickly that I know I speak for Lucy when I say it took no time at all before we felt right at home. I'm so glad our first two friends in this city were them!
