“Perfectly located downtown from PETCO Stadium, within walking distance. Excellent restaurants and convenient parking garage across the street. Loved the atmosphere in the place as much as I love baseball and the legend of Kacey/KC Jones of Mudville. What an excellent location, nice accommodation, and a pleasant stay it was for 3 days for the Billy Joel and Sting concert. I highly recommend the place minutes away from the airport!”
“This place was perfect and our host Linda was so kind and accommodating. Gave us great tips on where to go, best times to do it and more for our first visit to SD. We had a spacious suite that was beautifully decorated, and had all the things we needed for a great visit. The place is perfectly located as well. Easy to walk to Petco Park, Balboa Park, all over downtown and Gaslamp Quarter and the Coronado Ferry. Excellent restaurants nearby. If I could give 10 stars, I would. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”
“Had a really nice stay. Spacious quarters, full kitchen and nice living room, and bathroom. The patio/courtyard area was nice to relax in the morning and evening. Nice baseball decor, and the host was great to work with, even mailing me my shirts that I accidently left behind! The location is OK in the morning and afternoon, in the evening, it's good to have an understanding of the surrounding blocks and which areas are safe to walk to, etc...”
“Linda is a lovely host who is super accommodating and so fantastic! She even helped us get our bags to our car! Everything is super clear, check-in instructions and parking instructions were unmistakable. Her space is so cute and cozy, the perfect size and space for our weekend getaway and it smelled so fantastic the entire time! This spot is literally so central to the convention center, restaurants, bars, without being in the thick of things. I cannot recommend this spot enough! Will definitely see you again!”
“We had a fantastic stay at Mudville flats! The service was great and the room was spacious and clean. The bed was incredibly comfortable and the check-in/check-out process was very smooth. Linda was very kind and helpful during the stay as well! Free parking is included and very convenient to access. 10/10 experience!”
