My boyfriend and I were so excited for our trip staying in Michael's treehouse. For us, it didn't quite live up to the expectations we were hoping for. Though our stay was supposed to be two nights, we left after the first. BUT we think it could be perfect for a single traveler.
The pro's...
- absolutely beautiful grounds. Love love love the garden and all the plants!
- the deck immediately outside our treehouse (which is gorgeous and very relaxing) is deemed common space but because it's right outside our door, no one came up to it which was sort of nice since I wanted to read a book out there
- outdoor shower was creative
- Maria (who checked us in) was very sweet and gave us an informative tour
- Location right outside Little Italy was great. 7 minute walk to our favorite Italian restaurant Mona Lisa's and 10-15 minute walk to the train that took us to Petco Park!
The con's...
- Mainly the bed. It must have been very old, or as my boyfriend described it, a very heavy man once did a canonball in the middle, because the whole night we were rolling in to the middle of the bed on top of one another. Barely slept a wink and woke up very sore.
- The 'apartment'/treehouse was small. No, like really small. Much smaller than it appears in the photos. Not counting the bed, shower, or square footage one might take up sitting on the toilet, you have approximately 40-60 square feet of space to move and arrange your belongings. If they put in more coat hooks/shelves and other creative "small space" storage hacks it could be much more comfortable.

Again, we think it could be perfect for a single traveler, but was not a good situation for two people. The grounds is beautiful and the location is great though so if you're a solo traveler, this is a great choice!
