We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Marcus' Hillcrest retreat. The place was extremely comfortable, and very spacious for a studio. It's everything you need as a home-base from which to explore San Diego.

Hillcrest is a fantastically vibrant area, with plenty of bars and restaurants all with an excellent atmosphere. The location is perfect for exploring other parts of San Diego. We were able to move between Liberty Station, North Park, Gaslamp and the Marina quickly and with ease.

Marcus is an amazing host. He always made himself available if we needed anything, and is nothing short of an expert on San Diego's cultural sights and sounds! We hope to pay him a visit whenever we return to San Diego.
