Our stay Mellow Yellow was wonderful. The property is lovely with a great open kitchen living room and both a front porch and side outdoor space. It's in a more residential area so quite, but not far from Pacific Beach.

Not what we were expecting 😤 Where do I begin?... We couldn't check-in at the appointed time- we arrived and the cleaning lady had just started cleaning. We ended up washing ALL the utensils in order to use them. There are several burnt out light bulbs, the ceiling fan in the bedroom away from the street will not turn off (pull chain is stuck), the tall lamp on the living room will also not turn on (switch clicks but nothing happens), there were no washcloths, only 4 bath towels, 2 forks!, the stools at the kitchen island are super squeaky and wobbly, and the food that was left in the fridge previously is NOT usable. It is open, freezer burnt and just plain gross. The half drunk bottle of wine in the fridge is also not consumable- covid or not. There are large gaps in the flooring where it's pulled apart (laminate), the blinds in the kitchen are broken, the side yard is an absolute mess, the window in the shower was gross!, the outlets in the bedrooms are so worn that you can't keep anything plugged in... This is the 6th time I've rented a VRBO and unfortunately the worst experience. From not being able to check in on time to things not working properly in the unit or items not included that should've been. Also, the TWO beach chairs are filthy and on their last leg as well as the garbage can in the kitchen that I had to repair to use. The outlets in both bedrooms are so loose that you have to prop the plugs to keep them in. The side yard where the garbage cans are located is a disaster. The laminate floor is so pulled apart that it's nearly impossible to sweep and keep clean. There's also no hand soap in the bathroom. We found an empty bottle and poured some of the dish soap in it to use during our stay. I realize that I've listed a few things twice, but good grief this isn't acceptable. Positive: The location is great and the unit could be fantastic with a little care.

Amazing place

Walking distance to great park and beach. House sits on corner of a busy street, so traffic is loud. Walls are thin so if the neighbors are noisy, you hear it all. Otherwise it was a nice place, easy to find in a great location with easy access to many of San Diego’s attractions.

This was my first time ever renting an Airbnb, and I'm so pleased that we had an amazing experience. It was so cozy and with enough amenities for us. My children loved the place as well. I loved the fact that there is a front porch with seating, my fiancé and I were able to enjoy our morning coffee out front together every day. I will say though, the parking situation was kind of a bummer since it is street parking, but we made due. Thank you again for opening your home to us, if ever in the area again, I would look into this property again.

The Mellow Yellow house was awesome. Very clean, spacious and cozy. The beds were very comfortable. The owners take very good care of their house. Would definitely stay there again, especially with a group of 4-6 people. Thank you!!

This was a very cute place to stay. We had 5 people in our group, 3 adults and 2 teenagers. We had plenty of room and we were close to everything we wanted to visit! The closets were stocked with extra towels and blankets and even things to use at the beach, chairs, umbrellas, boogie board, games! The kitchen was a little short on utensils but that didn't stop us from utilizing the great kitchen for cooking while we were there! Drew and his family were great with communication and we have bookmarked this place for future visits! While there is not a dedicated parking spot we did not have issues finding parking either in front of the place or just across the road. The road noise was not an issue either. We would highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a cozy place to stay while visiting the Mission Bay area!

It was a great location and 15-20 minutes to almost anything. I did read the reviews before booking so we were aware of the traffic noise ahead of time. We stayed for a week after Christmas. The place was surface clean but if you took a closer look it was dirty. Pull-out mattress would be suitable for a child but not for an adult, very thin mattress. Couch was lumpy, towels in bathroom were old and faded, inside of drawers were dirty, floorboards dirty, chairs on the island wobbly and squeaky, blinds in kitchen sections were broken, dishware needs updating. You can hear the neighbors through the walls, I think next door is another rental. Careful with showers because the hot water runs out fast. A few small updates/repairs and is thoroughly cleaning is needed.

My family and I enjoyed our stay at Yellow Mellow. Quite Neighboorhood, really close to the beach and the house was clean. Only down side was the lack of AC and it's only one bathroom.

Super cute pad in walking distance to the beach, recreational area and great restaurants. Besides the loud noise from being close to the street, it was GREAT! Drew and other owners were very easy to coordinate with and responded quickly to all questions!

First the positives. This home is in walking distance to good restaurants and the bay. The two negatives and why I deducted two stars: 1. The couch smelled like bad body-odor & cigarette smoke. We had to take blankets off the beds to cover the couch to mask the smell. 2. The welcome book said they offered Apple TV, but when we spoke to the owner they had discontinued this service. The only option was Netflix which was continually buffering, and would not allow you to complete a movie before it gave you the error to pick another program.

Mellow Yellow was a great location for our stay. There were 4 adults and one baby. It was just a few blocks from the bay and just down the street from a great restaurant we ate at--The Menu. A few suggestions for improvements: get better speakers for the TV (the sound quality was pretty bad and if you have the windows open or fans on you really can't hear anything), and some window AC units would go a long way. The road noise from Ingrahm St is loud and doesn't die down at night. We didn't get good sleep the first night because we had the windows open with fans going, thinking the road noise would die down but it stayed very steady all night. Slept better with windows closed but it was harder to stay cool. If anything a few more fans would be helpful. Owners were very responsive when we needed a battery replacement for the tv remote; we appreciated that. Overall it was a great place to stay and very comfortable with the exception of the tv sound and street noise at night with windows open--which a few window units would fix great! Can't beat the location though!

Felt like home away from home

The condo was very clean and comfortable, it was more like a small house , the location was excellent, very close to the beaches and I would definitely recommend it , we had everything we needed.

The property is nice and clean. There is absolutely not air flow though. No such thing as an ocean breeze as mentioned in the welcome book despite leaving all the windows opened a crack. Which leads to another issue. Property is located on a very busy street and with the windows open you can hear everything(car, truck, bike, skateboarder, person with shopping cart) and everyone who is passing by all night long. There are ceiling fans in the property as well as free standing fans(now I know why there is ne in every room) but none of these are adequate in cooling the property down on a hot day. Overall OK to nice place but would not stay there again.

Great place and nice breeze all the time. Our family came to San Diego for vacation and we had a great experience with Mello Yellow. Beach is close and located around everything. Would stay there again.

We enjoyed our time at Mello Yellow. We did have issues with the sound on the TV but Neal came over to check it out. Close to everything. Didn't realize Ingraham was such a busy Street but overall a Great Stay and a cute place.

I had to make a couple special arrangements with Drew and he was amazingly accommodating! The house feels spacious and has cute decor. It was a perfect central location to Mission Bay, Gaslamp, and the nightlife in PB. We stayed as a bachelorette party, but it is also close to Sea World and other family-friendly attractions. The house was fairly well stocked, aside from a few kitchen tools that would've made cooking a bit easier. The bedrooms are a good size! Only complaint is that it's right up against a busy road so it can get a little loud with all the windows open. Overall, it was a great stay and we had a lot of fun!

Drew, Aimee, and Neal are great hosts. The place is so cute and perfectly accommodated us. The kitchen was gorgeous and had everything we needed and they also had a TV with Netflix. It was really the lap of luxury for a bunch of young college graduates who just wanted a lazy weekend on the beach. Despite the fact that we slightly made a mess of the place (spilled bag of rice what can you do?), they were extremely understanding and fair. We paid a bit extra but that was on us. Would stay again!

The place was better than expected. It was spacious, filled with beach accessories, and was very clean. The kitchen was well-stocked and the bathroom had great basic toiletries. The host was very communicative and ensured we had a good experience. The décor was fun to look at, too! We didn't have trouble parking and it was a great home base for the San Diego exploration we did.

Mellow Yellow is a lovely property. An older structure by So Cal standards, the landlords have done a great job of spiffing up the decor, and more importantly, updating the infrastructure, envelope, fixtures and appliances. There was one problem with the heater, but Neil and Drew were immediately available, on Christmas Day, by phone, to assist. Great location, caring management, and a classy place.

We absolutely LOVED this home, as everything's newly furnished/remodeled, it has all the amenities you need, and it was an excellent value. But our favorite thing about the home was it's super close access to the bike path around Mission Bay. It's just a couple blocks away and then you can bike to breakfast, the amusement park, the beach, etc. I highly recommend this home - you will NOT be disappointed!
