This cottage is a gem! I am a single, senior traveler and Kevin's place offered everything I was looking for. It had a neighborhood feel, it was two blocks from a bus stop, and there's an on-site workout room and laundry. The kitchen and bathroom are nicely updated and well-stocked. The deck offers both sun and shade during the day, and the gas fire pit was a nice touch in the evening. The cottage is part of a nicely maintained 1930s (?) apartment complex, so other residents are close by, but the place has a lot of charm. It's perfect for one or two people. There is a killer hill going up to Hillcrest, but if you walk one block down the hill, you catch the #7 bus it will take you up to the top. Also, I bought a 30-day senior transit pass for $32 and that's all I spent for travel and parking for two weeks and I got to five beaches, SDSU, Balboa Park and downtown. Such a bargain! You do not need a car and the transit system --MTS-- has a great app that makes traveling around by bus, trolley and train very easy. Finally, I did have a few questions for Kevin during my stay, and he responded quickly with the information I needed.
