Location was great! Close to a lot of places. Steve was very nice and gave us some pointers on things to do. Just right for what we needed. Clean and cozy.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Casita! The location is perfect, it's so close to everything. 5 minute walk to the Trolley Station for trips to downtown and Petco Park. A block away from Fiesta de Reyes for great street tacos and shopping. 2 blocks from Bazaar del Mundo for fabulous Mexican Folk Art, and colorful clothing and decor. The casita is so comfortable and is equipped with everything you need! The outdoor areas are private and very charming. Steve, the host, is fantastic! We were fortunate to be able to meet him this trip which was so nice. We will definitely be coming back to stay every time we come to San Diego!
Host was very responsive and everything was clean and clearly marked. Appreciated the beach towels! The outdoor patio was wonderful.Such a great location to use transit in San Diego. The Old Town Station connected to two trolley lines and lots of buses. We could avoid renting a car which saved a lot of money. Many walkable restaurants and shops too.
Property was clean and had everything we needed. Location was close to old town and all attractions with easy freeway access. I would definitely stay again.
This is a beautiful property inside and out with a great location. The bed was comfy, the kitchen well stocked, and the outdoor space was lovely. The location in Old Town is fantastic. We will be back and we highly recommend!
Everything was just perfect for our mini vacation. Location was great being one street over from Old Town. Easy access to freeways and walk to the trolley station. Off street parking was a plus.
We absolutely loved this little Casita! The kitchen was well appointed and had everything you could need for a vacation stay. It was well stocked with provisions and had plenty of towels along with beach towels, sunscreen and bug spray. It was in the perfect spot to walk across the street to the restaurants, shopping and the street fair on the weekend. The owner even stopped by to make sure everything was to our liking and asked if there was anything else we needed that he could bring. Couldn't have asked for nicer hosts! We will definitely be staying again in the future.
I had a wonderful, three-night stay here with my eight year old daughter. The casita was exceptionally clean and well-stocked with creature comforts. We cooked in the kitchen every night and were able to log into our Amazon account and rent movies to watch on the television, too. The laundry room was a convenient plus- one I didn't expect to use, but ended up using twice. The hot water in the shower is very hot and stays hot. The AC units also work very well if you end up needing to run them for a bit.I am a timid parker, so I opted out of the onsite parking despite having a smaller car. I had no difficulty finding parking on the street, and was always within a few houses of the casita. I also noticed a lot of pay lots in the area, so the parking situation felt pretty secure. But ...I don't think you even need a car to stay at this place. I love the transportation options SO CLOSE BY. We didn't do much in Old Town, but this casita was very convenient for the places we did end up visiting. We would definitely love to return. There's a lot of ground we couldn't cover in only three days. The host was a great communicator, and the departing requirements were minimal. Check in was super-easy, too. We felt very nestled and at home there. Thank you for a great stay!
My husband &I really enjoyed this old town casita! It’s just around the corner to the “hop on, hop off” bus that we used to see & visit some major sights in San Diego (without the hassle & costs of parking). The place itself is also cute, clean, comfortable, & was one of the most “well stocked” for kitchen & bathroom items. With great commication with the owner Steve, we give this place an easy “5” stars!
The unit we stayed in was clean and comfortable. The property owner stayed in contact and was available to answer questions and concerns. It is literally across the street from Old aTown San Diego park- definitely worth a visit. It’s also a short walk away from a transit hub which also has transportation to/from the airport.
Adult son and I enjoyed our stay in this location. It was clean, easy to find, and so close to all things "Old Town". The wonderful restaurants, music at the marketplace, shops and ease of being near the trolley service if desired all made it very desirable.The owners were available if needed and just a text away. We would absolutely book there again, and even though we made choice to be busy some days, resting at the house was quiet and gave a chance to recharge. Awesome spot.
Needed to get some serious down time and found this cute little gem in Old Town. With such a great location we found it very easy to access transit/train. Steve was on site when we arrived and throughout our stay was very helpful and responded quickly to any questions we had about the place or things to do in San Diego. Highly recommended!! Thank you for being such a great host!
We had an amazing stay at this casita. It’s in a wonderful neighborhood that served as a perfect base for getting around San Diego. Communication was clear from the beginning. The house is comfortable and immaculate, and there’s a great deal of natural sunlight, which makes it even more attractive. We’d love to stay here again and will be sure to spread the word. Thank you!
This rental was perfect! Close to Old Town and the Transit Center. Lots of room and everything was clearly explained. Nice area outside to sit with coffee and another area for outdoor eating with a grill. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and more. The host was great sending us directions/maps to groceries and information on tours. We are definitely staying here again. Thanks!
We would most certainly love to stay here again. Everything was perfect. Accessing the home was easy, we used the parking space and every morning would wake up, walk across the street to the cutest area imaginable and get coffee. We noticed that there was a lot of public transportation right there in walking distance. We took the sightseeing trolly and had a wonderful tour of San Diego and did the "Ghost Tour" that was really neat. Can;t wait to come back!!!!
This little Casita was amazing. Everything from check-in to check out was absolutely perfect! Communication with the owner far exceeds most experiences we’ve had while renting a unit. This Casita is fully stocked and is charming and holds that rustic feeling about it yet so very functional. The thoughtfulness of the owner is present in every bit of this lovely house. The acess to shops and restaurants was on point and secured parking was provided. Also, the privacy was so appreciated. We hope to make this our favorite when we return to San Diego‼️
The casita in Old Town was wonderful. We went to the NASCAR weekend on Coronado, and it was wonderful to come back to a calm atmosphere. We were able to unwind and be ready for the next day of loud and exciting activity. Steve was a wonderful communicator, and we felt reassured of any needs that might arise he was available to assist us. It was clean and close to everything. We look forward to visiting the casita again in the future. Thank you, Jeani
