I lived here for a little over a month. I had everything I needed and I felt at home. The host is very prompt with replies and if you ever need anything she lives right next door. Anytime I sent the host a message she usually replied within minutes. Just be mindful that your host also works, but she will get back to you same day. You have COMPLETE privacy. The place is right across from a neighborhood park and there were often people walking around in the morning. Around 6pm the park is full with children and their parents playing, exercising, or practicing for sports. They usually finish around 7pm and after that the neighborhood is quiet. You may hear the fire trucks from time to time as they leave the station but it really did not bother me. There is easy access to near by freeways. This place is in a location where there is not too much street traffic so there really is minimal noise.
Everything is provided for you as far as utensils, plates, cups, linens and towels. Anything else you may need you can always ask the host. I had no issues with my stay. You have a private entrance that is secured off from the main house and the entrance has a secure keypad entrance for more assurance. If you need any information about near by places to see, things to do, or places to shop, you can contact the host for suggestions. There is much to do in San Diego and many great places to eat.
There is no washer/dryer unit so if that is something you need and you plan on a long stay you will have to plan for your laundry needs. There is also no A/C unit, but thankfully the weather was nice during my stay. It was even cold enough to use the fireplace inside which kept the place nice and cozy. Upon my first visit, I found the place to be clean, orderly, and fitting for my needs. The space does accommodate for three people if needed but I was mostly alone. The stove is electric and easy to use/clean. Most things are labeled inside the studio so you can become familiarized with everything. I found that to be very helpful. I found the place to be true to its description and looks even better in person.
Overall, If I were to need a place in San Diego I would definitely stay here again. I felt safe here and I recommend this place to anyone who may be looking for the conveniences of a home away from home.
