Our stay at The Dutra was absolutely fantastic. Stephanie & Nate were super helpful upon check in and gave us the best recommendations for our stay. The location was way better than I expected and just a short walk to all the best food and drinks, and the beach. Their optional parking was also so helpful, I definitely recommend adding that feature on. All the interior details were so stylish and thoughtful as well. From the refreshing welcome drinks, to the gorgeous rugs, to the sound machines, I was making notes of items I was crushing on the whole time. The sound machine is definitely useful during your stay as the sound of the active night life and train are right near by, but I honestly loved the sounds of the city. After not traveling for so long, those sights and sounds were like hearing a favorite old song again. The building itself is gorgeous and old, so sound travels easily between the flats. The one time we had some neighbors who were being a bit too loud, Stephanie and Nate were more than helpful in getting them to settle down, and we had no further noise problems the whole stay (even as different guests checked in and out). After checkout it turned out a new item of clothing I wore had left ink marks on the white bed sheets, and Stephanie went above and beyond spending multiple days trying to remove the stain instead of just charging me outright to replace the stained sheets first. Stephanie & Nate’s hospitality and personal touches put this place over the top and it is easily one of our favorite Air BnB’s we’ve stayed at. We will be back and will send everyone we know visiting San Diego as well!
