I almost don’t want to tell you about this place because it was so perfect for our trip to Comic-Con, we want to make sure to book it out for next year, but the warm and kind host deserves the good review. The place is convenient and secluded all at the same time. Not too close to downtown so that you safe available parking and convenience away from craziness of con and gaslight district, but close enough to have nice easy stroll on foot or Uber/Lyft to the con!
We stayed in the gated inner cottage just steps from the main house, and Michael had a high end comfortable air mattress to accommodate 2 people not wanting to sleep together. We were there on business with all the hotels booked up solid. This was a God-send! There is a small frig. kitchen area and a private bathroom. But the main house also has an amazing full large bathing tub and shower in separate bathrooms in common areas of main house. I soaked in the large tub, and it was glorious!
Now I am going be straight With you, this is not a place to party or a hotel, and there is no smoking At all on premises. Not even in the cool multilevel decks. So do your 420 and cigarettes off premiSe. Also the house is just below the San Diego Flight landing path so you see planes just over head landing but it appears he soundproofed the house because we didn’t hear them sleeping or while in the main house. He also has a huge bowl of help-yourself to ear-plugs! Also all this means, flying in, you are minutes away from airport.
It was winning 4 days at the con! And this crash cottage pad is just what we needed after hot and exhausting days! ‘Nuff said! FYI the main house is large and spacious with room to cook, eat, lounge, etc. Kind of reminds me of a ski lodge but in San Diego.
Bring light jacket for evening and eat at Little Italy 3 blocks away! Crab pasta and wine. Yummmmm
