"Perfect spot for Dog Beach fun!"

Beach Bungalow, Free Parking, 2 blocks to the beach

8/10 Good

"This cozy beach bungalow was perfect for our weekend in San Diego! It is an older building, so it was kind of warm during the heat, but there is an air conditioning unit provided in the bedroom which helped a bit. Due to the heat, the place can have a slight mildew smell, but when we opened the windows and aired out the place it was fine! Even then the smell wasn't awful.Plenty of amenities are included which was nice, including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, iron, ironing board, hairdryer, and hangers. We had initial trouble checking in as the lock code was not working, but even at 9:00 pm our host reset the lock and got us into the place in less than 10 minutes! I really appreciated the quick response. The place was very good walking distance to everything. About 5-10 minutes to local shops, restaurants, and the beach. Plenty of bedding and pillows provided. Overall, if you're looking for a budget-friendly cozy place and are fine with a older building and it's charm, this is the perfect place for you! I would definitely come back for future stays :)"
