This visit was lovely, I spent a day in San Diego and didnt have the time or energy to run around which made this perfect. It is a quick visit that you can make if you just want a peek of history but also a place that you can take your time and explore little by little being marvelled by the historic details and gathered artefacts. Also the staff is super kind and friendly, made the environment the most agreable and even kept my huge bag safe while i visited to make the visit more comfortable.
Its so amazing this place is still around. Must see museum.
Great historic location, if you dont know the history; Google it.
Nice place to learn about the history of the Gaslamp. Staff is friendly.
The man who built San Diego. Fascinating, as all such visionaries are!
I love this old house downtown. Easily overlooked but worth the look around inside. So much history. Brochures explain each room inside or do the audio tour. This can be a quick visit in 30 min. Very cheap to enter. Oldest house downtown San Diego. Its also HAUNTED and been on TV for its hauntings. Two story fully furnished from 1800s.
A waste of time and money and an unpleasant experience to boot.All the rooms are roped off, plenty of folks skipped admission which was in a crammed office off to the left, and there were literally a dozen homeless people ornamenting the lawn, not even speaking to one another. You could tell they just lived there because it smelled like their bathroom.
It will start out with the positive, it was great to see some the historic places on the walking tour, the guide gave good historic facts about the surroundings. As a medium and a paranormal investigator I was in awe of the fake gestures and lies told to make this seem better than the boring waste it was. The guide actually had everyone download a ghost app on their phones so they could see the ghosts around them, when the app would shout out a random name the guide would say, oh ya they visit often. Seriously!!! I saw two spirits while on the tour, one inside the museum the the guide (a self proclaimed paranormal investigator and experienced ghost communicator) never acknowledged at all, and the other in one of the other buildings we were observing. When asked why the group didnt get any responses while they were using the investigation equipment and only when she did, she said, They know me they wont always communicate with strangers and They must be tired, they just arent active tonight. I was so disappointed! I was hoping my friend that was with me could experience something paranormal. Dont waste your money!!!! They were late starting and people actually left the group because of the B.S.
Nice museum that gives a peek into the history of an important San Diego family, but also on life in the late 1800s/early 1900s.
It was okay but there is a good self guide leaflet.
Great place to get to a bit of San Diegos history
It was nice to see but a bit small.
Its a beautiful house with a thick history about ghosts. I had goosebumps while walking across the bathroom and hospital room, the was creepy, too. Scary, but you need to visit once!
I really enjoyed touring the oldest house in the gaslamp. It has a very interesting history and is worth the small donation! A must see when visiting San Diego!
Explore your history about the history of this house. They say things get active in this house also. The look & feel of it is like youre back in that time. Go check it out if you like spirits & history.
Interesting bit of San Diego history. Good for a 20-30 minute visit.
Beautiful little Pizza West Coast history
Quaint place. Pleasant staff
Very interesting tour. I wish Id gotten the book now.
Nice old home. Set up through the different periods of time it was inhabited.
Smells looks like it was abandon then, they tried to restore with stuff they found at a garage sales. Sorry. But true
Low price, lots of interesting things to see
Outstanding piece of San Diego! Staff is well informed and gracious.
Not handicapped accessible.

Indifferent staff that was doing cleaning and vacuuming during the tour.
