We had such a great time at the casita. The location was fantastic with plenty of great restaurants within walking distance. The neighborhood felt very safe and had plenty of sidewalks. There was a neighborhood park, which was perfect for our 18 month old daughter. Most tourist attractions were convenient to access and we didn’t even have to get on a freeway to get to Balboa Park. The actual space in the casita was clean and inviting. Our favorite part of the place was the private outdoor patio, which we used as an additional living area. It was a relaxing space with a water feature, plants, and rustic furniture pieces. There was shade, so we could escape the July heat and a cozy blanket and heater for cooler nights. We highly recommend!
