I thoroughly enjoyed staying at Mireille's garden cottage. From the time I arrived she made me feel at home and welcome and I felt that I was transported to a private villa in the Mediterranean or Mexico! The cottage is very private/relaxing and the garden is lush and peaceful. I also really enjoyed the neighborhood and the close proximity to Balboa Park and numerous restaurants/bars. I highly recommend staying with Mireille if you are in town for business or pleasure.
