About this property

Banker's Hill "The Carriage House" Lower Unit. Pets welcome and near Balboa Park

Newly restored to it's 1920 grandeur, this free standing carriage house can sleep 4 in the lower apartment . (The upstairs sleeps 4 as well.) Easy walk to Balboa Park and San Diego's finest restaurants. Located between downtown and Hillcrest. As photos show, no expense spared!

The Carriage House, comprised of two separate rentable units, combines the best of both worlds—location and amenities. Its tranquil courtyard creates a quiet oasis in the center of Park West, San Diego's hippest neighborhood, adjacent to Balboa Park. The Carriage House lower unit offers two bedroom and two bath retreats. In deference to our neighbors, the space is never rented for parties. 2 night minimum on weekends. 11.05% occupancy tax included.

Free laundry room and private courtyard.
This is a friendly residential area and we would ask that you respect our neighbors' tranquility.

We are available to our guests for orientation and to answer any questions.

Home to San Diego's turn of the century elite, this park-adjacent neighborhood is an exciting mixture of mansions and luxury residential towers. The lower unit consists of mirror image bedrooms and en-suite baths all with queen beds and luxury linens. Newly restored...now open for guests, more photos coming soon!

Street parking available. Buses operate on 1st and 5th Avenues. Within 5 minutes from San Diego International Airport, downtown and Hillcrest.

Each mirror-image bedroom is equitable in its size and appointments. All queen beds with luxury linens with plenty of storage and closet space. Completely outfitted designer kitchens with new equipment and amenities.

March 2024 Stay
The carriage house has been built at the back of a residential property. The property is located in a nice neighbourhood that is densifying with add-on suites and small professional offices. It is very centrally located but you do need a vehicle. We always found on-street parking available within a block or two. It takes a little while to learn about the area but there are good coffee shops and restaurants nearby as well as a Whole Foods grocery store. The carriage house itself is very well constructed and beautifully decorated. There is also a suite upstairs but we weren’t bothered by any noise. The beds were not firm and perhaps should be replaced. The kitchen was extremely well-equipped. Overall I highly recommend the property.

Great property
Overall we enjoyed our stay here. We had a few minor issues like a smoke detector that kept going off when no smoke was present and finding a parking space on the street near the unit, but the property was well maintained and very close to Balboa Park. There were some great restaurants within walking distance. Communication with the host was great, with quick responses when we had questions.

Place exactly as advertised
Very nice place. Great owner and conceirge staff. The pictures are exactly what you get with the unit. Great location - central to everything. The reviews here are very accurate. The only small issues I had were the place was alittle musty smelling on check in/had flies (likely just from opening the big doors to clean from the previous stay), the amenities (like dishwashing soap and garbage bags were a bit minimal), and you had to go outside to access the laundry machine. Not major issues. I would stay here again, and I really appreciated the owner as I had my VRBO unit cancelled 24 hours before our trip, and they took care of us to accomodate us on such short notice. A great, fair priced place in a great location in San Diego. Awesome food locations so close by. Highly recommended.

Cozy, quiet retreat
We had a lovely time staying here. The beds were comfy and it’s a definite plus that each identical bedroom has it’s own private bathroom. That was ideal for our two separate couples. Plenty of space to relax in the living room after a day of sightseeing. It was a short drive to a variety of great restaurants. Checkin process was a breeze! This property had everything we needed and more!
