United Kingdomvery comfortable accommodation with very comfy bed and fabulous luxurious sheets
United KingdomAnn was an amazing host and the beautiful cosy house is in a great location. It felt beyond comfortable and was so calming and tranquil. Ann was beyond helpful and gave us lots of help and tips for places to visit. It was a perfect base for all that San Diego has to offer and we would definitely stay here again.
United KingdomAnn’s guesthouse is very charming and comfortable. Rooms are lovely and beds very comfy. We really enjoyed the breakfast in the morning and chatting to Ann herself who was super helpful.
IrelandBreakfast was delicious and fresh, service was great and the atmosphere was lovely and super friendly.
United KingdomWe loved our comfy bed and excellent climate/fresh air control in our room. The breakfast was just right for our needs. It was a pretty simple continental breakfast beautifully presented, very good coffee. If you like B&B's because you love sampling all the amazing dishes, maybe not for you.
United StatesLocation was perfect, it was quiet but right around the corner from Restaurant Row. Easy parking. Very friendly and helpful hostess, Kathryn.
United StatesAnn was a fantastic host - she was warm, welcoming, very informative and and highly attentive to her guests' needs, always inquiring if anyone needed anything or had any questions about things to do to optimize their visit to the San Diego area. The breakfasts were simple, but prepared fresh daily and served in a very nice setting, offering several areas for seating that provided privacy, if you did not feel like being social in the morning, as well as others which offered ability to mix and socialize with other guests. The location was perfect for those visiting the area - it was very quiet considering you were within walking distance of downtown shopping, etc. The property itself offers 6 on-site parking places and there is plenty of additional street parking in the neighborhood. Again, a nice "suburban" luxury in the heart of a city.
