Microwave didn’t work, front gate is broken Neighbors were screaming until 3 am on two separate nights Was clean and great location

This place gets points for fabu property mgmt and location to beach. Everything else is deplorable and the owner can do SO MUCH better. Poorly draining shower and disgusting toilet seat? Check. Hodgepodge kitchen with worn and cheap cabinets, dirty silverware and a broken oven? Check. Offering a two full size beds and a twin claiming to sleep four? Check. Two 4yr olds could barely fit in the “master”, let alone two adults. We attempted to use the hide-a-bed in the sofa - the one covered in a stained mattress pad with protruding springs - no thanks. Hey Slumlord: maybe swap beds btwn rooms and do ur guests a favor and put in a queen. Massive street noise and the lack of moving air? Check. U don’t want to open windows cuz of traffic, pedestrian and neighbor noise, and the offered box fans r just as loud as the traffic. Extra Trex decking screwed to wall for bathroom hooks? Check. VERY disappointing. VRBO should remove this listing from its website.

Very clean and walkable to the beach and restaurants. I didn’t realize there was no parking space and street parking was tough. This must be why it’s so affordable. Pay attention to the signs because you will get a ticket when the street cleaner comes. Beds were comfortable

This was a prime location and satisfied everything we had set to do. Limited parking but it states this within the listing. This property also had extra towels, bedding and all the kitchen things for cooking etc. Bring your own ice however if needed. Would definitely stay again.

Very short walk to the beach, which was a plus! Parking is a chore!! Just hope you find something close! The neighbors motion light points directly into the bedrooms. The second night we were there it was super windy so the trees would set the light off every 10-15 minutes. It is very close to all the shops and restaurants! Was easy to stay put for a few days and secure that parking spot!!

Wish there was a screen door on this property. Flys were really bad .to pretty out side to close front door. Windows could use some cleaning .but over all was a great place

Great walk to the beach. The place was in an ideal spot. However the place had ants and the shower was so clogged. And got 2 parking tickets because of the street sweeping.

You get what you pay for.... I am usually good about reading reviews, and looking very carefully at the photos- to see what I am getting. Its a cute enough little place, close to beach. Literally a 2 min walk to be on the sand!! Food and bars are a 5-10 min walk. Decent kitchen and dining room, with a remodeled bathroom. Beds are small- but clean! If you are a bunch of college kids wanting a place to crash or party- this is it. Not great for families or adults. We got to the unit- and it took us a good 20 min to get the door unlocked. The key has to be put in just right... and the perfect ratio of pull door handle, and turn to get it opened. The management company was going to "send someone to fix it sometime Sat morning"- which means we either trust this guy with all our stuff in the house- or have to sit and babysit for how many hours.... We used second key and figured out the perfect ratio to get in. Also when I called - I had to let them know I had to mop the floors Thurs evening. I got out of the shower and with in 30 seconds- my feet were absolutely black from the lack of mopping and dirt on the floors. There was also about an inch of dust on ceiling fans. (I bet I won't get any money back for doing the cleaning for them though!). Thurs night is jam session at the unit next door. They had band practice till 1030/ 11 ish- so if you are coming with kids- be warned! The couch is not the same as pictured- and needs to be replaced. It has huge hollow spots, and springs loose- and not the one pictured. Yes- you are close to the beach... you are also right on the main road of mission beach. You can not leave anything out on deck for even 5 min without it disappearing!!! We left a towel and a pair of shoes out to dry Sat on the patio furniture they were both gone! Also- we went in April and parking was a nightmare. I can't imagine what parking is like in the summer.

It was the perfect place for a beach getaway for 4 plus our little chihuahua, location was great, the cottage was clean and provided what we needed. Parking spaces were limited but that was expected. We enjoyed the patio and BBQ accommodations as well as the outdoor shower for rinsing off after returning from the beach.

We stayed at the Kingston cozy cottage for 4 nights. It was clean and spacious enough for 6 of us. The 2nd bedroom had a bunk bed with slept 3. It was fine for us the master need was a queen and was fine to sleep on. W had one night 2 people slept on couch and it was fine. The house is small but has a spacious living area. It was right off mission Blvd which can be a little noisy at night if you have the windows open which we were to tired to care about the noises.t The house was clean and nice. Not enough towels so bring extra. It's in a perfect location off mission beach several houses from the beach. We enjoyed the house and would come back and stay again.

The great things about the cottage were its location, style, and excellent supply of cookware. We were glad we stayed there, but there were some real issues with the place. I would definitely stay there again if the following problems were fixed: First, the beds in the smaller bedroom were awful. The lower of the beds in the bunk was extremely lumpy and uncomfortable! Not kidding, this alone made our stay unbearable. The upper bed in the bunk was noisy from the old fashioned springs. Every time my kid rolled over I woke up. Second, the cottage only had one couch for 5 people. This makes no sense. There's room for a couple of cute small chairs or a bigger L-shaped couch. There's an L-shaped couch in the pictures but it wasn't there when we stayed. Same idea goes for the patio --it only seats 4. Third, what's up with only two rolls of toilet paper for 5 humans for a week? Seems cheap and just mean spirited to me. Finally, it was hot in there. We finally ( on the last day) figured out that the actual heat was on! The thermostat was clearly not working. Thank goodness for the fans. Fixing these problems would not be unreasonably expensive and would make the stay much more bearable.

The kozy Kingston was a wonderful choice for our girls get-away. The sofa bed couch came in handy and was a nice surprise. There is a close little market with a friendly owner and Belmont Park is within walking distance for restaurants and bars. Would definitely come back again!

The property was charming with a wonderful patio to enjoy the mornings and evenings. Easy access to the beach and restaurants. Krista and the Mission Sands staff were friendly and knowledgeable about the local area. They made sure we enjoyed every aspect of our stay.
