Nice

We enjoyed the home and our family was comfortable. The kitchen could have a few more supplies, such as dish towels, a colander and measuring cups. Loved the patio.

Casa Del Cerro

We couldn't have been more pleased. The property was well maintained and clean. The only things that we recommend are that you should have a contact folder with phone numbers and internet passwords plus lists of entertainment venues, local restaurants etc. We would also recommend a wordrobe in the large bedroom and a BBQ grill for guest. Other than that we really enjoyed our stay in your lovly home and wonderful city.

SDSU Graduation.

House was not like the pictures. Inside floors were dirty. Backyard was mostly dirt. The deck railing was a safety hazard as not sturdy. Back steps breaking. Inside needs a new paint job. If just looking for place to sleep and be out most of the day this is good place.

Good but falls short

We were very excited to find this rental near family, the convenience made it worth our while however if you plan a stay to want to hang out at the rental, I would look elsewhere. The location is great and safe, the house was clean upon arrival and the home was decorated nicely. The backyard and front yard lacks any sort of landscaping or space to enjoy relaxing (a dining table but that’s it). There were many maintenance concerns that have been reported to the property management company. The house only has 2 bathrooms, one of which has very limited privacy to the busy street. If you are looking for a jump off point in San Diego it’s worth it however if you are looking to have a relaxing stay I wouldn’t advise based on our stay as there are other homes in proximity with great amenities.
