We truly enjoyed our experience at Rick's little house. This was one of the nicest places we have stayed using Airbnb, in terms of host responsiveness and property quality. Rick really takes great pride in his properties which is apparent as you enter his gorgeous garden.
The cottage is accurately described and has a lot of small personal touches which make it very charming. Great space for two people. Above all else, the crown jewel of this property is Rick's garden. It is absolutely beautiful and is a real retreat. There are fragrant roses, bamboo trees and a great sitting area to take it all in. Additionally location is great, Balboa park is down the block, close proximity to great coffee shops and restaurants of North Park and about 20 min drive to La Jolla and Corondo. Area is quiet and safe with plenty of street parking. Wifi is extremely strong and reliable !

We had the opportunity to meet Rick and he is a fantastic host. He is very responsive to text message and phone calls. Rick used to live on this property and his passion for maintaining it and creating a relaxing getaway for his guests is apparent. Rick was also extremely accommodating with our check in and check out. We had the opportunity to stay at the big house which was fantastic. The big house has many personal touches and the bathroom/ shower is resort quality. Natural light was great. Can go on and on about this property!

We will truly miss our time here, especially hanging out in the garden area! Thank you for a great stay Rick, and for being so accommodating!
