Charming 1 bd Cottage Close to All

RobertRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Kevin's cottage was the perfect place to stay in San Diego. I loved the back patio surrounded by flowers and fruit trees. The home was a fitting Shabby Chic style, immaculate and comfortable for one or two guests. Kevin communicates very quickly and is right there in the neighborhood to help if needed. The surrounding neighborhood is comfortable to walk around. I will certainly seek another visit at Kevin's cottage when I return to San Diego.

DeannaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
My stay here was exactly how I wanted it to be. The home was very clean and had a lot of necessities like cookware, silverware, shower products, and so much more! Everything was super neat and organized. The bed was extremely comfy. The host was very easy to communicate with and made sure we had everything we needed, also made sure all our questions were answered. I am looking forward to staying here again when I return to San Diego. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is thinking about staying here. You definitely get your moneys worth.

Little Italy Historical

RichardRating, 5 stars1 week ago
In more than 40 AirBnB stays around the world over the past 10+ years, this property was one of the best for me. Was traveling solo, but tons of room, great ammenities for the bathroom and sleeping. If you are looking for a full blown kitchen its not the right place as there is no dishwasher or stove/oven. There is however a microwave, air fryer coffee maker and full sized fridge. But, remember your a 3 block walk to some of the most amazing fresh meals in Little Italy and I did a lot of that. Plenty of bars to relax and chill and a great ice cream place called Salt and Straw that is always crowded. Remember CA pricesw, so things are a bit more expensive. Michael was a great host. I would def stay here again. Thanks Michael.

Anna’s modern & private San Diego guest studio!

CoraRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had everything we needed. We appreciated having the kitchenette. Parking was easy. The space was just right for two of us and we were able to relax each day after sightseeing. I enjoyed reading one of the books Anna had stocked in the room. Anna was easy to get a hold of and gave us recs for sites and restaurants.

Modern Spanish Casita. Sunny & Quiet with Kitchen!

ChristianRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
You will love this spot! It's cozy, clean and an amazing springboard for exploring San Diego! It's located around the block from Balboa Park and the Zoo with great restaurants nearby. One of the biggest winning points is how centrally located you will be and your 15 minutes from the airport, beaches and Petco Park. About the space itself - bright, sunny and comfortable, with a comfortable queen bed, full kitchen and spotless/ clean bathroom. Lastly, the host - Steven, was incredible helpful via local tips for food and activities. Well worth your time for a great experience. Enjoy your stay!

The Groovy Getaway

CalypsoRating, 5 stars4 days ago
This spot was so cute! The location is in between all the fun spots, little Italy, sunset cliffs, downtown, mission beach. We went to the social bowl which was right down the street and such a fun time, Monday’s are happy hour $5 drinks! The rooftop at the bnb was nice too, especially being able to see the city lights at night. You can get street parking (wasn’t too hard to find a spot) for $1/hr from 8am-6pm or pay $20/day for their gated parking. Only thing I’d say wasn’t the best is the couch was super stained, so we just shared the bed which was fine. And the shower soap that is provided isn’t the best so just bring your own if that’s important to you! Outside there are some sketchy people who walk around but it kind of comes with being anywhere downtown. Nobody bothered us. Overall, great experience and would definitely recommend!

Lovely Hideaway Studio by Village-Private Patio

MeganRating, 5 stars2 months ago
This is hands down one of the best stays my husband and I have ever had! Not only was the place super easy to find, but it was well stocked, clean and comfortable. The host, Connie, was extremely kind and flexible with us when our check in was late. She made us feel right at home and the value of the stay far exceeds the price. I highly recommend their granny flat in La Mesa and hope I can come back again very soon!!

Chic 1 bedroom near Little Italy downtown SanDiego

WhitneyRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
I enjoyed staying at Vivian's place and it worked just fine for my purposes. I was in town for a conference and the home is about a 20 minute walk to the convention center. The apartment was well appointed and I appreciated the in-unit washer and dryer. The home is in a quiet area of the city and fairly residential. There weren't many people walking around when I was coming back at night, which did give me pause as a solo female traveler, however I found the surroundings to be safe and had no problems.

JosephRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Tony’s listing was exactly as described in photos & writeup. Very clean & on point. Responds quickly & gave us a heads up prior about a Marathon going on so we could plan travel accordingly. Located in area where you can walk to local restaurants & bars. If traveling to San Diego again, I will most certainly book this place again.
