This is a beautiful property inside and out with a great location. The bed was comfy, the kitchen well stocked, and the outdoor space was lovely. The location in Old Town is fantastic. We will be back and we highly recommend!

This little Casita was amazing. Everything from check-in to check out was absolutely perfect! Communication with the owner far exceeds most experiences we’ve had while renting a unit. This Casita is fully stocked and is charming and holds that rustic feeling about it yet so very functional. The thoughtfulness of the owner is present in every bit of this lovely house. The acess to shops and restaurants was on point and secured parking was provided. Also, the privacy was so appreciated. We hope to make this our favorite when we return to San Diego‼️

My husband &I really enjoyed this old town casita! It’s just around the corner to the “hop on, hop off” bus that we used to see & visit some major sights in San Diego (without the hassle & costs of parking). The place itself is also cute, clean, comfortable, & was one of the most “well stocked” for kitchen & bathroom items. With great commication with the owner Steve, we give this place an easy “5” stars!

Everything was just perfect for our mini vacation. Location was great being one street over from Old Town. Easy access to freeways and walk to the trolley station. Off street parking was a plus.
5.0
This rental was perfect! Close to Old Town and the Transit Center. Lots of room and everything was clearly explained. Nice area outside to sit with coffee and another area for outdoor eating with a grill. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and more. The host was great sending us directions/maps to groceries and information on tours. We are definitely staying here again. Thanks!

Needed to get some serious down time and found this cute little gem in Old Town. With such a great location we found it very easy to access transit/train. Steve was on site when we arrived and throughout our stay was very helpful and responded quickly to any questions we had about the place or things to do in San Diego. Highly recommended!! Thank you for being such a great host!

90% of this 1 Star review regards our experience with the VRBO host owner. Worst VRBO nightmare…our months ahead, paid for 5 night reservation, was “lost” by host and our first night was double booked.
Next, chaos from inability to reach the host (he was out of the country). VRBO had our reservation correct, but couldn’t tell us why the property was double booked. VRBO couldn’t reach the host.
We and VRBO had no knowledge of host’s son being a contact. A neighbor told us to call the son. The son’s help was overshadowed by his words to my husband and I…“Why should I help you, if you’re just going to give my dad a bad review anyway.” The son did say “dad is old school” and nothing online at all, just a home paper calendar. No web access!
Owner finally communicated with us by email, his curt reply to me was ”You are welcome to a full refund” Future emails to my husband included excuses (it’s $65 to make a phone call from our ship). We needed a simple phone call, not hiding with emails and blaming VRBO.
Two vacation days were ruined even after VRBO found us a hotel.
The casita location is great, place was clean. Some amenities below expectations. The pullout couch is uncomfortable. The Wi-Fi service was sketchy which impacted the Roku TV.
In past reviews, people made improvement comments, but the host was immediately defensive…that’s unprofessional. We fully expect that to happen here. Several avoidable mistakes were made by host owner.

Property was comfortable, immaculate and we totally enjoyed our week long stay. The location was ideal.

Our host was indeed a SuperHost, both before and throughout our visit. The location of the property was perfect for exploring historic Old Town, and being near the transport hub, we were able to use the excellent San Diego metro system of busses, trolleys and trains As we were there for a month we were able to explore much of San Diego, and with so much to see and do we could have stayed longer
5.0
We loved the location being close to the park and a transportation hub. The cottage itself was a little like stepping back in time with original fixtures and vibe.
When staying more than a few days it was so good to be able to make some of our meals at home, and wander down the street to the local restaurants for others.
I’d stay here again.

My husband and I stayed in this cute little Casita for nine nights! We were in San Diego to celebrate our 35th anniversary and Christmas. The location was perfect and working with Steve was a pleasure.
We highly recommend this place!
5.0
Echoing the other reviewers, we can't say enough nice things about this place. Great communication with the owner before, during and after the stay. Roomy and comfortable one-bedroom unit with kitchen. The owner seems to have thought about everything - spices for cooking, maps, toiletries and first aid supplies, even a Scotch tape dispenser! WiFi is good and cell service (at least with T-Mobile) is strong. There's a Roku TV with limited offerings, although we couldn't figure out how to watch local broadcast channels so we just ended using our laptop WiFi to stream from our cable provider at our home.
The location can't be beat - walking distance to Old Town, at most one-third of a mile walk to the Old Town Transit Center which will take you nearly anywhere on public transit, and a safe neighborhood to walk at night.
The heating system at night was a little noisy and woke us up at least once each night during our stay, but that's really our only minor complaint. We will gladly stay here again the next time we're in San Diego!

From the moment I booked Steve communicated with me offering information on things to do and best ways to get around. He quickly responded if I had a question. The location was across the street from Old Town San Diego, tons of restaurants and shops as well as transportation. Yet very quiet day and night if you want to relax in the home. Highly recommend and will definitely stay again if I'm ever back in the area..

Excellent property and location! Walking distance to dining and market for shopping. About 5 minutes or so to the beach 🏖️. The communication with Steve was easy and enjoyable. His recommendations for breakfast and dinner locations was much appreciated. We will definitely be returning to this tental for our next California vacation.

As a frequent traveler, this casita is the nicest and best supplied rental I have experienced. Everything was spotless and worked perfectly.

Cute and Cozy Casita
I was very comfortable staying here. I loved everything about it.
Furnished nicely with a very comfortable bed. The location can't be beat, literally a few steps to Old Town. The landscaping was lovely. The swing out front was relaxing. An all around great place to stay.

Primarily dealt with Steve as the property manager. Super responsive to our messages. The casita is cute and the perfect size for me and my husband though up to 4 guests can be accommodated, just a little cozier. But totally the thing we loved was the location. Walk right across the street to Old Town with restaurants and shopping. Close to the airport, the zoo and the trolley. Close to our family we came to visit. It’s winter so we really didn’t use the outdoor space but it’s super cute and totally would any other season. We loved this little place and you will too!
