Fantastic getaway! This lovely zen garden cottage is just as described! Efrain was extremely welcoming & communicative. It couldn't have been easier to check-in & make ourselves comfortable. With no A/C, the front room was a bit close when we first arrived, but once inside, we opened the windows, turned on the bedroom fans & soon had a nice cross breeze going. Efrain's hospitality extends to all the little extras that make you feel at home; deliciously scented soaps, tasty snacks, cold bottled water/soda, & plentiful clean towels, to name a few. Our merry band of three were perfectly happy with the great location & the designated parking spot close to the door really came in handy. We even had the pleasure of meeting Efrain & some of his charming family on our last morning - he's a wonderful guy! If you're gonna be in the Hillcrest and/or Balboa Park area, don't hesitate to stay here. You'll love it!!!
