It was spacious enough for everyone to feel like they had enough privacy and room to be comfortable. We also loved the historic aspect of the home and surrounding area. Communication with the property manager couldn’t have been better! I highly recommend staying here. ##### Kristen L.

Historical home that is bright, clean and comfortable with all you need to enjoy family time. Fully stocked kitchen (for utensils), bring what you need for cooking (seasonings, etc). With 7 people, did not feel crowded and back patio is wonderful to sit and relax. Well worth the price for comfort and cleanliness. Good communication with property management. ##### Darlene P.

Property is across the street from Old Town and a five minute walk to the light rail and Amtrak stop, making it very convenient. We had six people in our group and had plenty of room. Could have had eight comfortably. The property was clean, charming and roomy. liewatwr was a pleasure to deal with and kept us informed of everything we needed to know we will assuredly stay here again. We ##### Jeffrey P.

Property was great! Very easy check in and communication with agent, house was clean and everything was in working order, including the hot tub! Beds were all comfortable and everyone slept great. Location is perfect for Old Town - one block down is the main street so everything is in walking distance, and you are about 15 minutes from The Gaslamp District, airport, and Marine Training Center. Would definitely stay again! This is a registered historic home with original items like tiles, fixtures and locks. Lots of character and it was great for us ladies! If you are looking for a modern, sleek, brand new type of home this would not be for you. ##### Kristi khaft H.

We’ve got friends in OB and PB so being in Old Town was a perfect spot. You can pretty much get anywhere you want in under 15-20 minutes - downtown, Coronado, Del Mar, La Jolla. And you can literally walk 30 steps to Old Town and grab lunch, dinner, a drink. The house itself is an adorable Spanish style home. Very neat and clean. Even though we didn’t up using it, the back yard is perfect for hanging out with friends. Would definitely recommend this property to others. ##### Ed W.

Great communication from the property manager, very clean house, and there was even a welcome gift bag with snacks and a bag of coffee from a local roaster. The check out procedures were very reasonable too which is always a plus. My only complaints: the pillows were all far too thick and firm/springy so that affected my sleep a bit (but the linens were top notch!). Also, the house is very well furnished but there isn't really a relaxing space in the common areas to enjoy as a group. The living room is a little formal and the outside area is great but an outdoor sofa or more comfortable chairs would take it to another level. But I wouldn't consider either of these deal breakers. If you're looking for a place near Old Town, this is it! A block from the action but still quiet enough to enjoy some peace from the crowds. ##### Daniel C.

The walk to the house from the transit center is easy. When we checked into the house we found no sheets on the sofa bed in the living room. As it was late at night we weren't able to get sheets until the next day, so our we had to make due with a duvet cover, blanket, and duvet. The bed itself is a horrible sofa bed mattress, so don't expect a night of sound sleep. The kitchen is sparsely stocked. Other vacation rentals usually have the basics of foil, cooking spray, etc. There are plenty of utensils, basic pots and cooking sheets, and pans. There was no dishwasher detergent to be found, so we also had to call on that. The bedrooms throughout the house all had comfortable beds and linens. The en-suite's bathroom tub/shower is a step down tub, and could be inaccessible to some people. It took one very large step to get in and out of the tub/shower. That should be mentioned in the property description. The keyed entry is on the side of the house, which requires opening a electronic gate via a key pad near the front door. On the way out you have to use a garage style gate opener to open the gate and exit out to the street. No easy front door access. The backyard is lovely. Communication with the staff is easy and responses are quick via email & text For the amount of money we spent each night, the issues we faced left me feeling disappointed. ##### Elaine e.

We loved all the indoor and outdoor spaces. The Host provided everything we needed and check-in and check-out was a breeze. The home is so walkable to Old Town and a short walk to the Trolley Station. Many great shops and restaurants within walking distance. Short Uber rides took us everywhere we needed to go. We were very happy with our stay, and the Host is very responsive to questions. 10 stars! ##### September D.
