Courtyard by Marriott San Diego - Rancho Bernardo

8/10 Good

"Comfortable room, convenient location"

Charming Cozy Suite in Poway with Sloped Ceiling & Private Balcony

10/10 Excellent

"Elena is an amazing host. She's super sweet and helpful. She responds to messages quickly. Her place was perfect for my wife and I. The location was great for us because it was nestled in between a few of the rinks we had to be at. I would definitely recommend."

Stunning Views & Private Backyard & Game Room & Grill in Great Location

10/10 Excellent

"A great stay!"

Private Resort style villa at San Diego-heated salt pool-Hot Tub-86" TV

8/10 Good

"The location was fantastic. It is a block away from Old Poway Park, which had a wonderful farmer's market on Saturday and it is close to shopping, restaurants, hiking, and only 30 minutes from Balboa Park and the beach. It wasn't clean upon check in and the dishes and silverware were visibly dirty and had to be cleaned before use. Not enough silverware for a family of 5. The pool was also very cloudy and had a lot of floating debris. After bringing this to owner's attention he mentioned it had just been cleaned and would notify maintenance (but nothing actually happened to rectify it over the next 6 days). The shuffle board didn't work, the fusball table only had ping pong balls, and the pool table outside was covered in debris. We walked through 2 cobwebs upon entering the front door and kitchen and the HVAC filters were caked over and had to be removed to work. It was 90 degrees at check in. The house had been neglected. The house was old and had an old smell but it was big, a nice big fridge, a great firepit and we enjoyed our stay."

Well-maintained, fully furnished studio located on the second floor

8/10 Good

"The room and the bathroom were clean."

Garage, Pool, King Bed, Gated Yard in Rancho Penasquitos

10/10 Excellent

"Location/Space looks just like pictures posted. Beds were very comfy. The TVs in every room was a great bonus. AC worked great and house stayed cool. House was clean. Tip-bring your own pool towels. There were bath towel’s available. Also there was limited forks/spoons so if staying a longer period of time you might want to bring extra"
