We had a lovely stay here for San Diego Comic-Con. The place was exactly as listed with nice views, good air, nice spacious ceilings, good bathroom, accessibility, etc.
My husband and I stayed here for parents' weekend at SDSU. The property was great. Well stocked, beer and water in the fridge, top floor location and easy to access. Communication with property manager excellent.
location easy to access
Such a great place! Location was very walkable and close to a bunch of cafes and restaurants as well as public transportation. The hosts were attentive and quick to reply to any questions we had before and during the stay. The apartment was clean and quiet & there was even an in-unit washer and dryer as well as a coffee machine. We had some issues with the check in process, but the hosts were quick to help and resolve our issue. There is a decent amount of homelessness near the building, but that’s quite common for the area and never made us feel unsafe. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely return.
Beautiful, clean and relaxing apartment. The rooftop view was stunning and we wished we could have spent more time up there but was too busy exploring San Diego. The only issue was trying to work the tv and chrome casting. Unfortunately the tv wouldn’t pop up to cast but it would for the other apartments because our neighbors casted on our tv lol. Would definitely stay there again.
Ever been asked by your company to attend a very popular trade show at the last minute after the hotel room blocks are sold out? Regular hotel rooms in San Diego for the ESRI UC were $700-$800 per night a week out from the show, so I turned to Vrbo for my first business trip rental. This place is very clean and also quiet for a downtown location. The hosts were very proactive and responsive and I definitely took advantage of the fully stocked Keurig coffee bar! A 20 minute walk to the SDCC is made more enjoyable by the fantastic San Diego weather. Would definitely stay again.
The apartment was within walking distance to convention center. Two blocks from public transit if you dont want to walk. Grocery across the street and around the corner. Building need security code to enter. I felt safe and secure. We had no issues. Team members on site were very helpful and courteous. Host eas prompt on communications with me. Apartment was clean and had everything needed. Thank you.
The property was in an interesting neighborhood. It was a mix of people and lots of unhoused entertainment going on outside. I appreciated that we had a smart and final grocery store right across the street. It was also in a central location for touristy activities. We never had to go more than 15-20 mins drive to get anywhere. The apartment was cool. We were a little disappointed that the door was unlocked when we got there and needed to find the lock box to be able to lock it when we left. The back of the bed was dirty but the rest of the house was clean. I definitely would stay there again. I spent most of my time on the balcony people watching and enjoying some relaxing time.
Cozy Unit, Amazing Bed, Plenty in Walking Distance
Just wrapping up our stay here and would definitely stay here again. Property was clean, easily accessible and secure. Check in instructions were easy to follow. Unit has a balcony with a nice view and plenty of natural light. The bed is nice and firm and perfect for anyone with back issues (me). Plenty of things to do, restaurants and bars to try out within walking distance. The area seems to be undergoing some change, so there was a lot of construction noise (only when balcony door was open) and there are pockets of homelessness that you’ll definitely see walking around (but that’s everywhere in San Diego), but at no point did I ever feel unsafe. Communication with host couldn’t be better; they always replied quickly to any message I sent. I would highly recommend this unit!

Apartment was very clean and communication with the hosts was excellent. Paid for parking at the apartment which was beneficial as there is limited parking in the immediate area. There were quite a few homeless people in the vicinity of the apartment and whilst we didn’t encounter any issues it did make us feel slightly uneasy walking when it was dark.
Roomy and has what's needed for a nice getaway. If driving, reserve parking beforehand...there's only 14 parking spots on the premises. The hosts, Jay, Sam, Kat, and Maika, are very helpful and their communications are excellent! I could definitely stay here again. Thanks!
Holy Mother Mary on dec 8 made this decisio. On immaculate conception feast dayI was really scared to stay here, instead i did it got better and better each dayThe owners, very attemtiveGod bless all us this Christmes to be merry
Unfortunately the secure gate for parking space was not working; location is iffy; 3 hours of frustration trying to get the TV to work (not our fault, as it was finally found out that the Roku remote wasn't in the apartment). No dish drainer, towel or sponge to hand wash dishes and dry them. Bed was comfortable and the sound machine was a plus! Bathroom was large and very clean.

Good stay - with a couple shortcomings
The unit was nicely designed, clean, and a grocery store was directly across the street. The downsides were that the A/C did not seem to be working properly, there is no TV visible from the bed (the only TV is in the family room and is separated from the bedroom area by a wall), and there is fairly large homeless population just outside the building. Also, the keypad had been replaced by a standard deadbolt, which meant I had to keep a key on me (or go to another lockbox to access the key each time I needed to get in the room).

Frustrating
Tv only woks through the Internet which would go out periodically.
Very frustrating when watching something. Air conditioning really loud. Kept us up all night!
