10/10
This is a beautiful and historic mansion very close to Balboa Park and museums, the zoo, old town Gaslamp quarter, airport, and cruise ship terminal. There is free parking at Balboa and free trolleys that go from the park to the Gaslamp district and throughout the city where you can hop on and off to sightsee. The stay at The Carriage House is in a surprisingly quiet neighborhood with little traffic. The upper story of the house has 3 large bedrooms and the second bathroom with ceiling fans and windows that open for cool ocean breezes. Downstairs is another large bathroom, and a nice kitchen well stocked with anything you could possibly need to prepare meals. Costco is 8 minutes from the house, and I spent less than 300 to feed six people 3 meals a day for our four-day 3-night stay (including a decent wine at dinner). Communication with the host was easy and the one difficulty I had (my technological challenge) with checking in was immediately answered. I traveled with my 90 year old mother who absolutely loved the trip as she had peace and privacy when she needed. This was a 10/10 trip, and I look forward to returning.
Good P.
