Cozy and quiet location in North Park - tucked away from the street

Great place to stay- the host accommodated a last-minute request to stay another day as our original flight home was canceled. I highly recommend the VRBO and am grateful to the host!

Andre was a very considerate host. When we entered the home we found a bottle of wine for us and bottled water in the fridge. I really appreciated the stock of k cups that were available.The cozy little house had all we needed. It was in a very nice convenient neighborhood. If we have occasion to visit San Diego we will definitely consider staying here again.

A friend and colleague and I stayed for a week for a conference, so that we needed not only a place to stay, but also to work together and have some privacy at the same time.Andre's bungalow provided all of that: it is very comfortable, easy to share, has all the amenities you could want - and all of that in the heart of North Park, walking distance to e.g. Santos Coffee and Grand Ole BBQ, to name two of my favorites.Andre himself was very open, helpful and responded promptly to all requests.I can warmly recommend his place!

Cozy and Quiet

This small back house bungalow was in a quiet part of North Park, but close enough to walk down to University Ave. where there are tons of restaurants, coffee shops, etc. Parking for the house is on the street, but there is plenty of space.

Half marathon

Me, my wife and sister in law stayed at the Vrbo this weekend for the Rock and roll half marathon. We are all originally San Diego locals so we had a packed schedule seeing friends and family. The Vrbo was a great location and walking distance to everything. Clean place.

Family Trip to San Diego

My family was looking for a place to stay that was just outside the city, but close enough to all the fun. We loved staying here. Very comfortable arrangements. Quiet neighborhood with easy to access property. The host was great at communicating and provided some nice neighborhood resources. We would highly recommend this property to anyone staying in the San Diego area.
