It was close to Balboa Park and freeway access to get anywhere else like downtown restaurants or the beach. It was a hot weekend so really appreciated the AC at night. Make sure you are aware there are steps to get up to the house. But once up there, there is a nice view of the neighborhood. The secluded patio in the. back was also a nice place to read in the evenings or early in the morning when it was cooler. ##### Denis k.

There was a great kitchen, washer and dryer, comfortable living room and a nice private outdoor space. We both noticed how comfortable the beds were as well. There was always ample parking on the street. We also walked up to the Hillcrest Farmer’s Market on Sunday morning. The hosts were easy to communicate with and responded promptly to my questions and requests. I would stay here again if I was in San Diego! ##### Jackie C.
