such a great value
this was so much better than staying at a hotel. the area is gorgeous and so was the vrbo. we plan on taking this trip again next year and hope to stay at the same place with any luck. only thing i would warn of is there isnt any great amount of storage for clothing. didnt bother is at all but might be something other travelers look for.

This property is great
The property is exactly as pictured and explained on line. Very clean and communication with host is great. Only issue may be parking which is only street parking unless you have a small vehicle to park in the reserved spot in the alley behind the house. This is a much better value for staying in San Diego area compared to a hotel. We will definitely stay here again when we return to San Diego and I would highly recommend this property for two people or a family of 4.

Perfect place adjacent to SDSU
We discovered Kensington as a quaint neighborhood just a few miles from SDSU a couple of years ago but had never stayed in the area. For parents weekend we wanted to be close to the stadium and campus so found this rental. The rental is perfect for a weekend getaway. It's spacious for a studio, nicely remodeled, the kitchen is ridiculously well stocked and the neighborhood is really quiet. We enjoyed walking the short walk to downtown Kensington to eat or grab a drink. Highly recommend this rental and staying in Kensington. A little hidden gem in SD!

The house was modern, clean and a perfect fit for what we needed. The neighborhood was cute and safe and we walked to the coffee shop for breakfast. The owners provided everything that we needed, so we didn’t need to reach out with any questions. Highly recommend this place!

Nice home away from home
We live in La Mesa and our home was undergoing remodeling. It wasn't completed on time so we needed to stay at a few VRBO's until then. A very nice studio, probably the most well stocked kitchen of all the places we stayed, all the cooking tools we needed. And no Keurig thank goodness. Very nice patio although I only had time to sit out there once when my husband was at work. Quiet neighborhood and close to Adams Ave. Highly recommend!

This property is delightfull. My wife and I enjoyed a two night staycation here to celebrate our anniversary. Pluses: A wonderful, quiet neighborhood close to great restaurants, a comfortable bed, effective AC, every streaming platform you could want, a fully equipped kitchen, a large bathroom, great privacy, and easy parking. We never had to use the dedicated space that is around the block from the unit. Cons: can’t think of any. We would definitely stay here again.

Super-clean, beautifully outfitted and very private spot close to restaurants and shops on Adams Ave. VRBO description and access directions were exactly as posted. Wish it had been warm enough to enjoy the outdoor seating! Happened to meet the homeowners one evening, who were very charming and welcoming. Thank you for your hospitality!

San Diego
We enjoyed our stay in this lovely studio apartment while visiting our two adult children who continue to live in San Diego. Since we had lived in San Diego for many years prior, we had a rental car so we could visit friends in North San Diego, but the area is charming to walk around and has wonderful restaurants close enough to walk to if you enjoy walking. My husband is a consultant and was working part of the time- he was very pleased with the consistency and speed of the internet. The garden sitting area is peaceful with lights at night which add to the charm. Also, the parking space in the alley was very much appreciated especially when coming home in the evening. Nick and Amy were very responsive to our needs.
