Were the coffee makers okay? We enjoy coffee a lot ourselves, so we've tried to provide options for our guests to enjoy. Please think of us if you come this way again.
We had an excellent stay. The home is centrally located and provided quick access to all SD has to order. Everything is exactly as pictured. The check in process was smooth, communication was great. The hosts took great care to ensure the home was clean, stocked with essentials, and ready to enjoy. We’ll definitely stay here again.

Loved this house, it was beautiful and very clean. Pretty much stocked with anything you need. They even had beach chairs to use which were very nice. Washing machines for normal clothes and one for beach stuff. The neighborhood was very quiet, never really heard anything. Great little restaurants and shops near by. Would definitely love to stay again. Thank you!

Great house, great spot and great hosts. Perfect for our family of 4
What a great little house. It was a perfect location for getting to all the things we wanted to do in San Diego and situated in a cool neighborhood that has its own things to offer as well. Hosts were very attentive and clearly went the extra mile to make our stay comfortable. Would recommend to anyone!

We loved our stay at Altadena! The property is better than the pictures, including the amazing outdoor spaces. Mick and Lynn were also very helpful and gracious hosts as well as great communicators. We also loved the surrounding neighborhood and its proximity to all of San Diego’s attractions.

We had a lovely stay. Communication with host Mick was very smooth. The house itself is thoughtfully decorated and has everything you could need (and more). We loved the neighborhood feel and proximity to restaurants, shops, and Balboa Park. We also appreciated the beautiful landscaping and backyard patio for relaxing and dining el fresco. We would stay again in a heartbeat!

Why they chose this property
Recently remodeled, great location with restaurants within walking distance, located between South Park and North Park on the east side of Balboa Park, San Diego
What makes this property unique
Thorn Street Brewery is a block away, Santos coffee place opposite brewery. There's small market within half a block, barber, hair dresser on a quiet street, in an out of the way back block of North Park. Baron's Market on north end of Bancroft St, about 5 minutes away. Scooters are usually close by though they're getting rarer as the craze wears off. Rideshare (Uber and Lyft) are a great way to get around.
