I’m a San Diego native and wanted to give my out of state girlfriend the perfect San Diego experience. Our stay here hit all the marks, great place to stay, tons of shops, activities and San Diego staples nearby. She had an amazing time and I’m glad I was able to share the perfect San Diego experience with her!

The location was fabulous for walking to many places downtown and along the ocean. The Casita was clean, quiet and comfortable. Entry was seamless and communication was good. There's a lovely courtyard garden between the house and the Casita. Good lighting in the bathroom and nice towels. Parking can be challenging sometimes as it is on the street and there is no designated parking spot on property.

Location was excellent! It was a busy time to visit, but we managed to find lots of lovely walks that were not crazy busy. Francesca was friendly and fun and full of great local tips. I'd love to go back in the Spring to see her stunning garden!

The ADU was in a great central location in La Jolla. We were concerned about a large stain on the comforter that appeared to be poop that is why we rated less for cleanliness and value for money. I would like to be contacted about this matter as I can follow up with a photo. Thank you
