House was lovely and clean, and the view of the bay was spectacular. Only complaints are that the check-out time is a bit early (10am). Downstairs bedrooms get rather cold at night. Otherwise, we had a great time.

The location was perfect for us since we were mostly staying around downtown, Coronado and the beaches. There is an amazing view of the bay including a beautiful sunrise each morning. Lots of room and Multiple bedrooms and bathrooms. The house is unique with lots of character and potential. The dining room chairs are not very comfortable.
Property information said there is no heat so we brought space heaters but never had to use them since it felt warm inside. There is no dishwasher. The windows do not open so there is limited airflow downstairs in the bedrooms. Parking is a little misleading. You could probably fit 2 really small cars on the street in front of the house. We have a truck and were lucky to get the one spot in front of the house. When we arrived to checkin we had to park in front of the garage. The Kitchen doesn’t have a lot of counter space if planning on cooking. The stove is really old.

The view of the harbor from the big living room window and balcony is absolutely stunning. Spent most of our time looking at the views.

While the temperature was mostly fine - low 80’s no A/C and no ceiling fans would have been a real breaker had I noticed ahead of time. It did not occur to me in 2023 to have to watch out for that! Unpleasant to sleep at night. I found two fans in a storage room but we had 3 bedrooms. Beautiful view. Very vintage.

This is a charming home built in 1938 with much of its original charm - fixtures, cubbies, tiling, etc. I would give it a 3.5 but that is not an option and I am not only to overreact. However, the best part of the home is the balcony and living room which face the bay and were excellent for the 4th of July Big Bay Boom! As well, the text line for repairs was very prompt to a repair that needed fixing for safety on the stairs (<24 hours).
These are the items which keep the property from being all it could be.
- Though the listing mentions "thermostat" know that this is either opening or closing of the windows.
- Many windows cannot be opened and there is no screen on the back patio so the opportunity for cross-ventilation is limited.
- Much old carpeting throughout leaving a damp/musty smell.
- Less towels in the bathroom than occupants on the reservation.
- No access to the backyard.

We enjoyed our stay at this property. As many others have stated, the property has not been updated in decades. However, the beds and couch were comfy and the place was clean. The location was great for us...walking distance to a few restaurants, a quick drive to the airport, downtown, Coronado, and La Jolla.

The house is of older vintage and a little skimpy in the kitchen but the views made up for this!!!! The terrace overlooking the harbor was lovely! And good beds too!

This place could be lovely and unique but it needs some thoughtfulness and attention to pretty basic details. We love old houses with character and this place has it - it was clearly loved once and is a step back in time to elegant San Diego. And the view from the first floor windows and porch is stunning especially at sunrise. But there are several things that do not seem so hard to be addressed : to start there is NO washing machine (despite being a 3 bedroom house) apparently it is in the garbage which is locked. The small bedroom is so musty smelling we had to close the door and our daughter slept on our floor. And the bathroom off the big bedroom has an old slanting glass window that does not close so it was freezing - so we had to close the door and could not use it. The kitchen floor is carpeted and feels old and dirty (shoes are recommended) and the kitchen is very minimally equipped, with limited pots and utensils etc. and no basics such as salt and pepper and oil. The basement is white carpeted which is certainly warmer, but things like a cheap acrylic small carpet thrown over a stain - but it tripped us every time we walked on it, was easier to live with the stain ;). While most of the furniture is interesting and comfortable, the king bed frame seems to be a new cheap metal frame which squeaks every time you move at all on the bed. There are not two parking places (unless you want to park on the sidewalk) but there was no problem parking in front on the street. This place worked for us in terms of its location, and there are many charming parts about it, but it certainly needs some attention.

Great house! Pretty dated in a lot of ways, but suited our needs perfectly. Tons of space, very clean, absolutely gorgeous view, comfortable beds, working thermostat, easy access, plenty of street parking, and great location for us.

No heating system or portable heaters anywhere to keep house warm. It was freezing cold and the 1st night 3 people woke up with sore throat from cold. They said someone would come over to adjust thermostat in kitchen bit no one showed up.
It's an old beautiful home but without proper heating in the winter it is not as pleasant.

We had a great stay at La Playa Adobe, the rooms are big and the beds are really comfortable, bathroom had both tubs and working showers. The highlights are definitely the views from the balcony, living room and kitchen. It could be absolutely perfect if the house was a little updated and windows better cleaned. Overall will suggest to family and friends.

Great location and view, we expected the house to be old as it was built in 1934. However the condition and cleanliness was not adequate. Many windows did not open so poor air flow, Spider webs all over patio, Showers had very poor flow and barely any hot water. Trash cans were overflowing and sinky when we moved in. Mouse droppings in many cupboards. House was just sinky and a little scarry, white carpets downstairs were difficult, we took shows off but just looked dirty. The two king beds were nice the queen mattress was unusable, too hard.

House was not clean. Yes, you read that right. They charged $827 in fees, but did not clean the house. They refused to at least refund some of the fees since we cleaned the house for them. Floors were not vacuumed, spiderwebs in several places, lots of dirt on window areas, and funky smell in house. And no TV remote. These all point to a bad job of property management.
House itself is in a fantastic location with an awesome view!! Neighborhood was quiet and safe, and located close to so many things to do.

Great views from the deck. Essentials were stocked well.
However, some of the minor details could use work - there are doorknobs that are loose or tight, bathroom doors that don't close, and shower heads that don't spray straight. The beds aren't the most comfortable - just okay. The garage was occupied (listing said it was free), but street parking is easy enough.
Overall a solid place that gets the job done.

The house was cute and like stepping into a time capsule. The view was gorgeous from the patio. The only cons is that there is no dishwasher or washer and dryer. It is in a perfect location though and lots nearby.

The good news: Great views of boating activity and downtown San Diego from a nice deck. That alone is worth the price! Two of three bedrooms roomy. Lovely, high-end neighborhood. The bad news: Not especially clean. Many windows don't open. Several lights didn't work. No access to a lovely backyard. Very low-end cable tv service. No designated parking spaces as described; street parking only (sometimes easy, sometimes not.).

Great location and beautiful view from the balcony. We were close (20 min) from everything we wanted to do; Zoo, Midway, Golf, Shopping, Downtown, & multiple beaches. Although we did not spend much time at the house I did not realize that there was no grill, A/C, and most importantly access to washer & dryer. Other than that the house was great for cleaning up, sleeping, and hitting the sites.
