Definitely in my top two best Airbnbs I’ve ever stayed in! It was the perfect spot for me and my 3 other friends, all in our late twenties. Perfect amount of space, everything was super clean, and we were impressed with how modern the bathroom was. The small kitchen was perfect for storing our drinks and eating our leftovers.
It was a bit warm when we first got to the house but opening the windows or turning on the AC cooled the place down so quickly, we were very comfortable the rest of the weekend.
And the beds! Very comfortable beds and pillows upstairs! My friend slept on the pull out bed downstairs the first night but then just slept on the couch for the rest of the nights and he said he was comfortable.
The building is really cute and has other units inside being rented out. We thought we might hear other guests in the units around us but we didn’t at all except when we had the windows open and there were people hanging out outside. And those outdoor common areas are awesome! There are a few sitting spaces in back, one of which has a fire pit, and one in the front. We had such a good time eating and hanging out on the front patio.
If you’re planning on watching TV, just know the TV is a little small, but we absolutely had to watch Hamilton when it came out and we still enjoyed it on the small screen.
This Airbnb is like a hotel. They provide towels, shampoo, conditioner and body wash, an ironing board, and have things like lights and mirrors (mirrors are so important to me) thoughtfully placed.
The location is the only thing that isn’t outstanding, but for the price, it’s still good. We did have a man approach us the first night asking for money but we gave him a dollar and he went on his way, nice guy. There is a taco shop close by, a cool ice cream shop called Mutual Friend, and a cool coffee shop called Dark Horse, both of which we walked to. There are several beaches that are all about a 15 minute drive from the house.
John was so kind and was easy to reach via text or call. We chatted on the phone and he gave me some good info on the best places to go and again, was just super kind.
I will 100% try to get this spot again next time we go to San Diego!
