It's always a bit of a gamble when booking site unseen, but rest
assured what you get with this place is exactly what is described. If
you choose to book this way it must be because you're tired of the
usual hotel fare and crave home comforts---that's exactly what you get
here. Everything you could need is within easy walking distance and if
you don't like to walk you can take very accessible public
transportation or (as we did) rent bikes and ride everywhere, even the
beaches (beware there are manageable hills to endure on the return).
We had no car and never needed it. The condo is clean, well equipped
and the pictures are truly reflective of it's comfort and space. Bob
is a great host and a font of information. He was very patient and
generous with his local knowledge. I would not hesitate to recommend
this place for a couple or single person visiting San Diego for
business or pleasure. It's a great place to make you feel like San
Diego is your home. Thanks, Bob, for all your help and making our stay
so comfortable!
This was my first experience with condo rentals and my wife and I were
very satisfied with the property. Our host was extremely accomodating
considering we booked at the last minute. Bob provided us with a guide
offering suggestions on attractions, restaurants, directions to the
different beaches and a list of grocery stores and even the Hillcrest
Farmer's Market on Sundays (highly recommended). The listing was
accurate and the condo was nestled in a very quiet complex in the
middle of everything. The condo was equipped with everything we needed
as far as cooking, washing, and spending the night in to watch a
movie. The World Famous San Diego Zoo and Balboa Park were a short 15
minute walk from the condo. We did not take the bus as the weather was
incredible. We spent time in Ocean Beach and La Jolla which were no
more than a 20 minute ride (sans traffic). As for recommendations for
future visitors check out Ritual Tavern in the neighborhood,
Extraordinary Desserts (we visited twice) on 4th Street, Hash House A
Go Go. Take some time to visit Ocean Beach and try the fish tacos at
South Beach Grille. If you're there on Sunday, the Hillcrest Farmer's
Market is a short three block walk from the condo. For those
adventurous types, check out Manahue Surf School for lessons at La
Jolla Shores. Oveall, I would highly recommend this property to
friends and family. We really felt like locals by the end of visit and
are looking forward to going back! Again, great host and a fantastic
property! Thanks, Bob!
I agree with previous comments regarding location, proximity and
accomodating owner. Condo has recently been renovated and is
beautifully (and comfortably) decorated. I was impressed with
cleanliness of the condo as well as the quality of linens and kitchen
items. Parking is convenient and easily accesible.
We stayed in this apartment over Christmas and had no complaints at
all. It was very clean, plenty big enough for two, and looked just
like the photos here. The view out of the combined living room/kitchen
to North Park and beyond was great. The kitchen was well-equiped, and
we easily cooked a couple of meals. The dishwasher was very handy! The
wifi was fast and never went down. The apartment sits more or less on
the border of Hillcrest and North Park. Our hire car was useful for
the larger shopping malls, but at night we just headed out on foot, as
far as 5th to the west and 30th to the east. We walked to the zoo,
which took about 25 minutes. And we even walked to downtown on one
occasion - it was easy getting the number 7 bus back. The owner's a
lovely chap. Very welcoming. And he answered all our emails quickly.
There's a lot of useful information and recommendations waiting for
you in the apartment, so don't worry about turning up in San Diego
having done very little planning! Yep, we'd very happily go back
there.
A very nice condo in a wonderful area. Walking distance to Albertsons,
which is a large grocery store. The condo was very clean and very
comfortable. It was also nice at how secure it was and the private off
street parking space was a plus. The condo is located close to the
highway so it seemed everything was within 5 minutes. We loved it and
would stay there again.
We stayed here in mid September and were very happy with the condo. It
was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The location is
perfect. It is so close to everything; restaurants, shopping, and easy
access to several freeways. The owner was very nice and accomodating.
I would definitely recommend this condo.
Cute, wonderfully spacious condo with all the amenities. The owner was
very nice and accommodating. It is conveniently located in Hillcrest
district with lots of shops and good restaurants. Plus the bus stop
nearby takes you through Balboa Park and Gaslamp Quarter. Would stay
here again!
An excellent stay in San Diego! This condo comes highly recommended.
Appointed as advertised, includes everything one needs for a
comfortable stay. Owner is very helpful, responsive and accommodating.
Location is perfect if you wish to be in walking distance of
everything Hillcrest has to offer.
We stayed in this apartment and enjoyed it very much. It's clean,
comfortable and furnished in pleasing contemporary style. The bed is
excellent with beautiful linens. Kitchen is well equipped. We were
using public transportation and there are several bus lines within a
block of the apartment. Markets, restaurants, shops and galleries are
within walking distance. Balboa Park is within walking distance or
accessed by a short bus ride. The owner was friendly and helpful. We
would definitely stay here again.
Work, pleasure, or a mix of both. I highly recommend this apartment because of it's comfort, layout and location. In addition I found the Michael, the owner to be very responsive and hospitable. The "heart of it all" definitely describes the location. The neighborhood is vibrant and friendly, with anything one could possible need. It's proximity to Balboa park and its accessibility to all of the cool things in San Diego make it ideal. The apartment itself was very warm and inviting with comfortable appointments and a nice workspace. I thought it definitely delivered what is advertised. A daily treat was to wake up in the morning, walk out to the living room and be able to see the mountains in the east. Saw some beautiful sunrises! .Finally I really appreciated MIchael, the owner. He met me when I arrived and gave me a thorough orientation to the unit and the complex, in addition to providing information about the neighborhood and its goings on. I also appreciated him checking in to make sure I was settled and had every thing I needed. It was a great experience!
