Mike and Todd were exceptional hosts; they're super friendly, very kind, and treated me like a friend they've known for years. Their place is really cute and perfectly located in a safe neighborhood with easy access via a pedestrian bridge to Hillcrest and its many food spots, shops, and bars on University Avenue. Balboa Park, the San Diego Zoo, and airport are all within a 10 minute ride or dive as well.
Honestly, I'd probably stay there again just for the beautiful, lush garden, but the room was very clean, comfortable, and full of everything I needed and more (including lots of snacks and beverages, extra blankets, plenty of towels, other things you may have forgotten at home).
Overall, I'm really happy I picked this listing over a few others I was eyeing around San Diego because of the reasons mentioned above and also the grand hospitality they gave me.
