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!

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.

North Park Excursion

We enjoyed our stay in this VRBO. It is located in a quiet neighborhood, comfortable, and close to Balboa Park, downtown and the waterfront. There is a lack of dinner plates and food bowls in the kitchen area, which was otherwise well equipped.

North Park Rental

Overall our stay was comfortable. The general location of the house put us within easy distance of North Park and area businesses. The property itself was ok. While it suited our needs, it wasn’t anything special. The description did not say it was actually located behind another home. You need to enter through a back gate blocked by cars from the front house. After going through the gate, you need to walk down a path that allows you to see directly into the front house which was awkward. The property needs some TLC for sure as the couch and area rugs are looking worn and dingy. Overall our stay was fine and Andre responded quickly to my messages but the pictures and description of the property are somewhat misleading.

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!

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.

Great location and cute, comfortable house

We enjoyed our stay in North Park. The location is great, short walk to several bars, restaurants, coffee and shops. The parking on the street was easy and the host was very nice and communicative. The house has 1 air conditioning unit so the bedrooms get hot and it took a long time to cool the place down enough to sleep. Thankfully there were several fans in the house so we stayed comfortable for the most part. Overall, good experience and would recommend!

A delightful retreat from convention bustle

Stayed here during a large convention, and it was just close enough to be convenient, but far enough away from the noise and chaos from that many people. Returning here after a long day truly felt like a respite. The host communicated the exact right amount to be welcoming, but not intrusive. When I come back for next year's convention, this place will be my first choice.

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.
