Luci was lovely, the neighbourhood very walkable and with many handy conveniences such as food trucks, coffee shop and liquor store. The highlight was Luci’s beautiful lemon tree and having daily refreshing lemon drinks. The only thing I can think of as a bonus would be to have a little area to sit outside for coffee and happy hour.

Adorable upstairs apartment

Love the Lemons

Fresh lemons from the property owner were left on the table, i enjoyed them in almost every thing I ate or drank, very nice neighborhood, I loved the charm of the house, when inside it has a cozy beach bungalow feel, very well decorated, and a bonus was the small sunscreen in the toiletries, it really came in handy on my beach day 💗, I highly recommend and would stay here again.

Great place, great locatin

Had a very relaxing time. Only complaints were that the shower ran out of hot water after about 5 minutes (probably because the pressure was soooo high), the TV was small but had cable and ROKU, and the couch was uncomfortable after awhile. But the location was amazing. We could walk to the gym, coffee shop, bars, and the cutest bookstore. The bed was super comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. Overall a wonderful stay.

Great location!

Walking distance to several places we went and perfect neighborhood for a stroll. We loved our stay at this guesthouse and it was the perfect lodging for out multiple day stay. We have never experienced such a stocked kitchen amongst all our vacation rentals- including abroad! The neighborhood is so quiet as well. Water pressure is the shower is amazing. Although there is wifi, the internet was out while we were there. No biggie for us.

We loved the guesthouse! It was very clean, which is super important to us. It had wonderful charm, as well. A huge bonus was discovering South Park! We could have spent our entire vacation in this amazing spot. The restaurants, shops and friendly people were the best! It is our new favorite spot in San Diego. Luci is the owner right next door and she gave us great recommendations to try as well as the fresh lemons from her tree! We will be back!

Wonderful location and host

South Park is a great neighborhood to stay in. My wife, daughter, and I stayed in Luci's adorable "Granny pad" and felt right at home. Safe, walkable, great food and convenient shopping would describe the area. Our host, Luci, was so gracious and friendly and had many suggestions on where to go within just a few blocks of her place! Access to Balboa Park and the freeways was easy too. And the interior of the apartment felt like a cozy home like my grandparents had back in Boston. The charm and comfort were there along with anything you'd need to cook a nice meal. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back here. Aaron, the property manager, made check-in and check-out a breeze too.
