* Downtown Gem | Near Petco, Dining & Fun Spots *

The place was great. We were a family if 5, and we fit just fine. Two bedrooms with queen beds - one at the front and the at the back. Two bathrooms; one on-suite, both with showers. The washer and dryer were a big plus, and there was plenty of laundry and kitchen cleaning products. The kitchen had everything we needed (although another mixing bowl would have been helpful). Another downside is the lack of a dining table of any kind (there's no room for one), although there is a table for four on the back patio (which we didn't use because it was to hot while we were there). The a/c works great, and the beds are comfortable. (The 7-year-old who slept on the couch had no complaints.) The front yard that doubles as a parking area is mostly dirt with scattered patches of grass. From the outside the place doesn't look like much, but inside it was very clean and comfortable. Communication with the property manager couldn't have been better. The property is not too far from downtown, but I wouldn't walk it, especially at night. The neighborhood is pretty dodgy. There's a fantastic little place two short blocks away: Adalberto's Mexican Food. The food is really great and the portions are huge! We would stay here again.

Fantastic stay, loved the location and being close to downtown. Super great communication!

The VRBO listing, Downtown Gem, was great for a weekend getaway just for a couple (2 people) or very small family needing to be near downtown San Diego, CA! Also, easy to get to and from SAN International airport via Uber/Lyft or rental car! Host was easy to contact, as well. Property is small and old, but if you’re there in SD it serves the purpose!
