University Heights Casita!
We had a wonderful stay in this well-appointed casita! It’s in a nice neighborhood just a few minutes walk from a great row of restaurants, coffee shops and breweries. Host was kind and has a sweet pup named Hattie who may come say hi if you’re out in the shared backyard space.:)

Beautiful casita
This was a gem I wish I had discovered my son's 1st year at SDSU rather than his last. Such a cute place! Beautiful decorations with matching dishes and towels! We loved having the extra space to visit with our son and enjoy a meal away from the crowded campus atmosphere. So much better to stay here than nearby Hotel Circle. I highly recommend this casita. The only drawback is that the bathroom is small. Using the toilet would be difficult for tall, large, or older people who have problems sitting and getting back up. When sitting on the toilet, your knees are almost up against the opposite wall and I'm 5'4". My husband is 5'10" and he was fine but anyone over 6' would have difficulty, IMO. The shower is fine and wonderful but the layout of the toilet is a challenge. Definitely not ADA compliant. Despite that, I would go back and stay here. It is so charming. I wish we had time to just sit and relax there but we were mostly on the run. The owners even welcomed us with a lovely bottle of red wine which we enjoyed. Thank you!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Casita. It was everything we could have wanted and had everything we needed. The location was perfect for exploring San Diego and we felt safe there. It was our first time in SD and we would definitely stay here again on our next visit. The bed was comfortable and even the toilet roll was the softest ever! The parking was great, right next to the door to carry our bags in. We loved saying hello to the hosts dog too. Very clean and tidy. Thank you Jim & Lynne.

The Perfect Stay
The property was even better than expected. It was only a 10 minute walking distance to a coffee shop for breakfast and lots of other restaurants. The casita was so clean and smelled so fresh. It was nice to know that the property owners actually lived on site and it wasn’t just someone who owned it off site so you know they take pride in it. Jim and Lynne were so nice and accommodating. A lovely shared backyard that was wonderful to relax in with our kiddo while the other parent got to nap! We would definitely love to stay here again if we come back to San Diego. Super close to everything, we only spent $15 on gas for our 4-day trip. Bed was super comfortable and futon was also surprisingly comfortable.

Perfect Place!
We walked in the door and immediately fell in love with this Casita. So charming! This Casita had everything you could possibly need. Plus it was very well stocked with supplies. Very comfortable and clean! The neighborhood was so quiet! You could walk 2-3 blocks to Park Boulevard which is like a main street with restaurants, coffee shops and places to have a nice glass of wine! We felt very safe walking around their neighborhood. Outside your back door is a nice sitting area to relax and also a waterfall with a bench to sit at...so calm and peaceful. Big plus is the parking spot right outside your door. Mission Beach is 15 minutes away driving time and beach parking is free! The hosts, Jim and Lynne, were absolutely wonderful! And you couldn't help but love their dog Hattie! Couldn't ask for a nicer place. We will definitely be back! Just wish we had found this Casita many years ago!

Great location! Walking distance to restaurants. Owners are were really nice, even got visits from their dog Hattie, very sweet. The casita was VERY clean and very well furnished, really everything you would need without having to ask. Perfect getaway spot for a couple. Convenient parking away from the owners so you're not bothering anyone. I really can't say enough good things about this property. Just a really great experience!

Nice place near most attraction but in a quite area
It's a studio with access to a beautiful court yard. The studio is very bright and pleasant. It is decent size for two people, we have three, our son has to sleep on a foldable foam on the floor. The closet has The container store (?) organizer, makes it very usable. A nice touch. The bathroom is very small, especially lack of legroom at the toilet place. The kitchenette is very nice, has a small dishwasher, which is very useful. The air conditioner is very loud, we have to shut it or turn to low fan when we go to sleep. The kitchen and bathroom has everything you need, very thoughtfully stocked with all kinds of supplies. I enjoyed to sit by the chair next to the studio door in the court yard to have my morning coffee. The owner lives in the front. They are a very nice couple with a friendly dog. Very easy to communicate with them. We did barbecue once during our three night stay. The owner helped with instructions and cleaning up (thank you!). The location is good. It's in a quite and safe neighborhood yet not far from most of the attractions in San Diego. One night we took a walk outside and enjoyed night view from the cliff at the end of the alley. There is a laundromat not far from the place that opens late in the night. Overall: Definitely will recommend this place. The parking space is a huge plus.

Ideal spot
This Casita was perfect for me. Everything I needed. My son lives nearby, so location was perfect. I felt comfortable, safe, and loved the owner's garden. Pleasant folks I would recommend to others. You could walk to Adams Av where there are restaurants and cafes. We had activities in the city where things were short distances. Parking for 2 cars, so when family picked me up, they could park easily. That's a big deal in SanDiego.

We made a great choice staying in the Casita Studio rental instead of a generic box hotel. The property was spotless, quiet, and private, with very convenient on-site parking. The University Heights neighborhood is walkable and has nice food options, and it's a great base from which to drive to the San Diego attractions. Jim and Lynne were great hosts - it's obvious that they really care about their property and their renters (be sure to enjoy the beautiful garden).

We were familiar with the location from a previous stay but the ability to park right next to your door was just so convenient as parking in the area can sometimes be challenging. This area is very central and makes seeing the cities attractions effortless. The unit itself was great. Lots of little touches. So well thought out so you don't need to run out for basic supplies as soon as you arrive. Groceries are close by too as well as lots of restaurants in walking distance. Nice safe quiet part of town. Highly recommend.

We loved staying in this beautiful, spotlessly clean and well equipped casita. The hosts Jim and Lynne were fantastic. We stayed 3 months and we had everything that we needed. Beautiful garden and very quiet and safe area. A laundry service just up the street was great for laundry. Hattie the dog was fun. Nice to be able to enjoy her. I would give this property and the hosts 10 stars.
