Great location and good for families

Fantastic home located a short walking distance to downtown La Mesa for restaurants, shopping and access to the trolley and freeway. Great for families with lots of space and amenities. Beds not as comfortable as I would have liked, but not a deal breaker. Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful place with nice views

Overall was a perfect spot , easy to get to and easy to check in. Only two things I would say is if you plan on streaming any TV bring an extra device as their Smart tv did not launch any apps. Also the parents bedroom is a bit on the darker side , there’s a lack of light downstairs.

Great place

I enjoyed my stay. The townhome has a modern uncluttered feel with windows and a deck that look out toward Mt Helix. Very pleasant. The neighborhood is wonderful for walking and a short walk to La Mesa Village , restaurants, coffee shops, trolley. Mayra responded quickly to my questions.

Amazing Owner

The owner was incredibly sweet and so accommodating. Having children, he had all that we needed and helped me with anything I needed. Super understanding of being a busy parent and hectic lifestyle, I felt comfortable and got any needs met with any questions I had for him. The place was very good with everything close by. Thank you for letting us stay at your beautiful location.

Home away from home

The house and location are perfect! Warm and inviting with personal touches that make the rental feel like a home. Beautiful view and functional black out curtains in the master bedroom. Plenty of hot water with good water pressure. Comfortable beds. Easy walk to cafes. Best espresso is at a coffee shop is called Public Square. Very responsive management with excellent communication.

This is a really cute property in a lovely hillside neighborhood. It is well kept and family friendly. A few things I would adjust in the home description: be up front about the bedrooms being downstairs. That is not clearly laid out in the description and the stairs could be a problem with persons who have mobility issues. Also, be clear in the description that this property does not have a yard. It says it is pet-friendly but there is no location where dogs can “do their business” without taking them out on a leash.

Quiet, relaxing stay in beautiful La Mesa

We enjoyed this spacious unit, with its modern decor and peaceful views of La Mesa--Jewel of the Hills. We were a bit surprised by the upside down layout, which featured a steep staircase to the bedrooms, baths and laundry downstairs. But the high ceiling and views from the living area made it well worth the trips up and down. Overall it suited us well, and we would choose this home again for a future visit....

La Mesa Townhouse

My husband, myself, our adult, daughter and our dog all had a wonderful stay in La Mesa. Plenty of room for all in this townhouse which is within walking distance to Old Town La Mesa which was walking distance. Arrived on Friday and we were able to enjoy the Farmers Market. Restaurants for breakfast and dinner also walking distance. You can grab the trolley into San Diego. Nice view from the balconies and great walks in neighborhood. A little road noise at times w/door open but not a problem when closed. Was nice to have kitchen to make meals.

Loved it- we will stay here again when visiting our son at SDSU.

Great property, perfect for what we needed. We were moving our son into SDSU. We arrived late at night so waking up and having the Keurig there and ready was great. The Brita water pitcher in the fridge with water already chilled was great too. The first night, I tried to sleep on the futon but it was not comfortable at all as I could feel the wooden beams through the cushion, so if you are counting on that for a bedding option, it was less than optimal. The real/other beds were very comfy though. Bedrooms were downstairs (short set of carpeted stairs) as was laundry room with washer/dryer, sink, supplies & plenty of space. We had our full size SUV (Infiniti QX80 if that helps). It would not have fit in the garage and we had to park at an angle in the driveway to keep it from sticking out too much over the sidewalk, but it wasn't an issue at all and we are used to that when we drive big vehicles to Southern California. There was some street parking also if needed on a quiet street. The trolley runs right below the property but with the doors/windows closed, we could not hear it at all (husband is a very light sleeper and was worried, but no issue at all). Communication was quick and friendly throughout the process before and during our stay. Overall, we definitely loved it and have no complaints- comfortable, away from the busy streets, close to SDSU and freeways, in a cute neighborhood with a lovely deck where I enjoyed my coffee and watching the trolley go by below.

This home is a diamond in the rough -- situated in an unassuming neighborhood in La Mesa, it is conveniently located within walking distance to handfuls of good restaurants, bars, shopping, trolley access, etc. Once there, we did not use our car once! The neighborhood is modest, yet friendly and well kept. The amenities nearby offer something for everyone.There are two things I would like to draw to people's attention: there is no a/c upstairs (only in the bedrooms downstairs), but San Diego has such moderate climate, that is probably rarely an issue; and there are no TVs in the bedrooms.Otherwise, it is an adorable and clean home in a perfect, less congested, area of San Diego.

The house was spotless. Great to have a washer/dryer. Walking distance to stores, groceries and family that live in the area. The only drawback were the air fresheners that gave you a headache the minute you walked in. We found all of them and placed then outside for the duration of our stay to make everything perfect.

This is an additional note to my earlier review; we stayed at this property for two weeks, from 1.21 to 2.3 2026. I wanted to mention that both the rental team and the owner of this property were very communicative and helpful, with quick responses to any inquiries. The owner shipped a coffee maker to the property when we explained that we don't use a Keurig. That was very much appreciated.I'm changing my rating to five stars, as I think the noise concerns we had were fairly minor on the whole and may not affect others as much. Just be aware that there are definitely traffic sounds you will hear in the unit!On the whole, a very comfortable rental for a longer stay.

La Mesa Townhome

Overall, we had a great two-week stay at this townhome within walking distance of La Mesa village. It was large, clean and very well stocked, and the upper level living areas were open, nicely decorated and very pleasant. The only reason we give it four stars is that there is a certain noise level that renters should be aware of. There is considerable traffic and a trolley that runs frequently on the major street below the unit, and the noise is audible through the older lower level bedroom windows at night. Also, there were two very loud dogs next door that barked at us whenever we went on the balcony. I'm not sure if that would always be the case, but it was a minor nuisance for us during our stay. Overall, this is a very pleasing, comfortable and large space that makes a nice home away from home.
