Loved staying at Lydia's cottage. She was very fast to respond and helpful. We were 2 adults and an almost teen. The queen bed is in a separate room and there's an air mattress with pump and both were comfortable. The charming cottage is located in their backyard but is very private and has its own little fenced in patio. The residential neighborhood is quiet and safe and street parking was free and always available right infront of the property. The cottage is clean, comfortable and has been furnished and stocked up lovingly and thoughtfully and we had everything we needed to relax, wake up, have breakfast at home and head out. Lydia left some snacks as well as water, bagels and cream cheese in the fridge when we checked in which was a very nice gesture and much appreciated. The kitchen has a stove,small microwave, pots and crockery and could be used to cook small meals but on vacation we just needed a place to heat up or make easy food. The bathroom is clean and stocked up with everything you need as well. The central location made it easy to get to the zoo, beaches, Old Town, Seaport village, La Jolla and other attractions all less than 30 min away.
We had a wonderful stay and both Lydia and Mitch were friendly, responsive and helpful. We would love to be back if we are in town again.
