This is truly a hidden gem in San Diego! The two-level floor plan with wrap around porch was comfortable and just a cool place to stay for a couple of days. It's surrounded by flowering trees that were jumping with hummingbirds and the sound of the koi pond was soothing. If you have any hesitation about the out door shower, do not worry, it's actually very nice. It is right outside the upper level porch and adjacent to the house. It's secluded with no worries of privacy. It's very refreshing to take a hot shower then feel the slightly cool San Diego ocean air! The parking is on the street and free, and we had no issues getting a spot within seconds of the house. You will notice some sounds from the nearby highway, but for us it was no real issue. The location is fantastic as we were minutes away from the Gas Lamp Quarter, Mission Hill, Old Town and the airport. Plus, being near the highway got us quickly on our way to any other place we wanted to go. We highly recommend this Air BnB and would stay here again!
