The place is as described, with a few exceptions. During our stay, it was quite warm ( we were expecting this) so chose a place with air conditioning…It has air conditioning, but what they don’t tell you is it’s only the bedrooms, and per the host rules, you can only run them with the door closed and only when you are in the place. So because it was actually quite warm when we were there, we couldn’t actually enjoy the living room. The appliances were good.. only used the microwave because too hot to cook ( no dishwasher, so I recommend using very hot water)Also the host asked to leave shoes outside? I’m sorry but no..with cats running around the area I really didn’t want pee or poop in my shoes. The gates were problematic ( it takes several tries to get the close provided to work) but did work and I did feel somewhat safer, but in all honesty I wasn’t expecting people to be sleeping on the sidewalk next to my car.. obviously, not the fault of anyone but the economy and cost of living in San Diego, but knowing what I know now I might have chosen a location closer to convention center as I was traveling for a veterinary conference.Note: there is a small parking lot next to this location but it’s not for use by renters of this unit. Parking was usually within a block, but also I’m sure people were using trash cans to secure prime spots( literally, the only time we could park in front of the gate was the morning we checked out)

The parking isn't very convenient for someone who is in a wheelchair. We loved the house but again had to leave her wheelchair outside as well as our shoes(which isn't a problem) We felt safe due to needing a code to get into the property. Tje water gets very hot so be careful letting littles play in the tub. We loved havimg the hot water because most places don't usually have good hot water. The beds were very comfortable.

Accommodation was exactly want we were had in mind for our short stay. Clean and equipped as stated. One small thing, the front bedroom was very hard to get around the foot of the bed. I hit my knee on it, so i remedy that problem by putting a pool noodle around it, worked great.

Central location

Our place had easy access to all that we wanted to do in San Diego. While the neighborhood may look sketchy, we did not feel unsafe. It was clean upon arrival. We were able to park nearby if parking was not available out front. The bedrooms were small but comfortable. Hot water for all showers and dishwashing was appreciated. Thank you! It appeared as described however the finishings are showing wear (example: rusty soap dispenser, scratched toilet seat, stained microwave. etc.) The water downed detergent and shampoo are silly. It would be better to just not offer it. The quarters for the washer and dryer were a huge bonus and the detailed instructions were thoughtful. Thank you for providing us with a clean and safe place to lay our heads.

Guest house in San Diego

This small guest house was ideal for our 12 day vacation in San Diego. Location was perfect for us to walk to seaport village and gaslamp. We even walked to little Italy and balboa park. Otherwise Ubers were quick and reasonably priced for the short distance. The guest house was a private getaway with kitchen set up so that we cooked breakfast every day. We would stay here again and highly recommend it for 3-4 people.

Great place, well run

We've stayed here a couple of times now. Nice place. Wish it had a parking space, but you can't have everything in life. Owners are great. They let us check out late because they didn't have anyone coming in behind us, and when there was a mix up with the cleaners prior to our arrival, they fixed it asap and comp'ed us the night. Can ask for fairer than that.

John’s place was fairly spacious for 2 people and John was easy to get in contact with, which we appreciated. However, we had issues throughout our stay with the wifi - John did try fixing it by resetting it however, it would only work for an hour at a time and then need to be reset again. We did reach out to John to help trouble shoot (and he always responded right away) but after the third day of having the issue just gave up. The street the house is on is also quite loud so you can’t sleep with the windows down. Thankfully the rooms do have AC (which is very loud but helps drown out the street noise).

Clean and Comfortable

The property is excellent. Everything we needed was available. They even came by on the same day to refill our soap when it was empty. The property is safe and gated. The outdoor spaces on the porch and the patio were very nice and we used them quite a bit. The location and proximity to everything was wonderful, however the neighborhood (even though the houses are beautiful, well maintained and historic) are surrounded by homeless. Through no fault of the owner, we did not feel comfortable walking around the area very much. I understand that the situation is much improved from previous months and I hope that it is a trend moving in the right direction. If you have a car rental, there was plenty of parking and eliminated the need for walking around the neighborhood.
