    Although this review is long overdue, I felt I still wanted to write one just to explain the fact that we had a fabulous time at this bed and breakfast. We stayed in the Captain's Quarters during Comic Con International and there is no better place coming back to than that room after being on your feet all day. Not only was it a short distance to the convention center but the outrageous prices you can pay for hotel rooms during that time, you are getting a great deal by staying in comfort and luxury here! The jacuzzi was the perfect way to relax and the bed was so comfortable! On top of that, Glory was a great host and entertained with a great breakfast and then gave us our space :) We will definitely be back.

    Like staying with family

    We stayed at Holiday House B&B two nights in late October 2011 in the New Starboard Stateroom and it was great! That bed was so comfortable I actually slept both nights like a baby, it was fabulous. I really liked having the private entrance to our room and the fact it's somewhat isolated downstairs is very nice and the view is fantastic! The house is gorgeous and perfectly situated for a view of downtown and the bay. It's really convenient to everything in San Diego. Glory is a wonderful hostess, the breakfasts were outstanding. Thanks Glory!!

    I just spent 6 days at Glory's house and couldn't have felt more at home. I rode my motorcycle over from Phoenix, and she even let me keep it in her garage. I stayed in the Captain's bedroom, but did see all 3 lodging areas, and all were great. The view alone is worth the price. Glory give's you all the space you need. She cooks a wonderful breakfast, and then basically, gets out of your way unless you need her for something. The pool area is exceptionally clean, as is the entire house. The point loma location has many close areas of interest to keep you entertained. And Glory knows all the hot spots and the best values in town. This is my first stay at a B&B but won't be my last. This is waaaaay better than a hotel. Dennis K.

    We recently stayed at this B & B (March, 2011). This was our second visit to Holiday House. Glory is such a wonderful host! Her breakfasts are so good, lots of fresh fruit and extremely accommodating to any dietary needs. The view from the great room is magnificant, the rooms very clean and comfy. It feels like you are coming home at the end of the day rather than a place to stay. Glory has lots of map, info and advice for all who visit. If you are looking for a "home" away from home, look no further! You won't find anyone who is as helpful as the owner of this B & B. Centrally located to all freeways and parking too. Enjoy!

    Innkeeper Response
    While you wrote a glowing review about my Holiday House Bed & Breakfast, you only gave me a score of "4 out of 5" which means to me, you were not entirely happy here? It would be most helpful to me, to know why I didn't score higher and what I can do to improve my guest's stay. Thank you so much.

    This was actually our first stay at any B&B and it was definitely a positive experience. We stayed for two nights in the Captain's Quarters to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The room is very spacious with an excellent view of the city and the harbor. The bed was very soft with a variety of pillows. The bathroom was large with a two-person shower and a jacuzzi tub. I would highly recommend booking this room if you are going to stay at this B&B. Glory, the owner, was very nice and cooked great breakfasts. I especially liked that she started our breakfasts off with a large bowl of fresh fruit... that was delicious! We would highly recommend this B&B and plan to stay there the next time we are in San Diego.
