The location is great except for the noise of people coming in and out and going up the stairs by the door near the bed. Also the planes fly overhead all day and night but after awhile you get used to it and you block it out.

Door codes were easy to use and instructions left were clear. The hosts were great, the bed and pillows were incredibly comfy. The place was clean and had pretty much all you needed.

The only thing, I would have liked to have been was higher up than the ground floor, for better views.

The location was really good, and the apartment was lovely, clean, and the main bed was so comfy.

We expected free parking to be included, but it’s at an additional charge. The airport is very close and the planes run over the building, so it gets very loud. Night flights are infrequent so you can still get a relatively good night sleep and air plugs are provided.

The property is close to downtown and the Balboa park. The apartment is very spacious and has all the necessary facilities. The bed was particularly comfortable.

You need to be aware that it was right under the flight path and planes were going over every few minutes. Although parking is advertised as free it is all metered parking. The ‘one bedroom’ is really an alcove so there is no privacy for a family. The shower had very low water pressure. We were on the ground floor (note there is no lift) but the noise between the apartments was concerning, particularly when your neighbours have dogs and they are scratching around on the floor above!!!

Good size apartment with good kitchen facilities, although once the sofa bed was out the living room had no room for a dining table.

Bed was OK - nothing amazing but decent. Since there were apparently 4 units above ours, there were constant footsteps up and down the stairs all night (for the first night). For the second night, it was a bit more quiet but still to be aware of. Cleaning fees are added though maid service is not available - they're just basically tidying up for the next guest and changing your linens and towels. Since parking fees are optional, we were able to pay this fee but it could be discounted further especially for 1 night stays. Airplane noise was a concern and watch out for a few street people nearby.

Location was good - this property is located basically halfway between Downtown (gaslamp) and the San Diego Zoo. it's also across the street from the southwest corner of Balboa Parkso this is 0.4 miles from the West entrance. There are good coffee shops, a couple of cafes/bars within walking distance. And a CVS drugs 1 block away for convenience. I also liked the pet policy so we could bring our critters on vacation. A/C worked well but can't control temp - needed to manually turn off after 30-60 minutes. TV was smallish but worked pretty well and same with Wifi/internet. We liked the full fridge and kitchen which was a plus for multiple nights. Street parking is available for free / low cost but be aware which spaces are metered. And the room fee was reasonable especially through Booking com.

Broken dishwasher, no smoke detector.

Great staff. Good location.

It was quite noisy with people accessing their "tower" at different times of the day and night, although earplugs were provided in the apartment.

We loved this apartment. It was huge, spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. The location is good and we walked everywhere, except to Old Town which was just too far. We got an Uber there. The bed was very comfortable. We easily found free parking on the road outside, that runs alongside the park.

Stayed in August 2023

The only reasons I'm giving it only a score of 8 is the sofa bed, which was very uncomfortable, and the airplane noise which was something I wasn't prepared for and would probably have chosen differently if I had known. But other than that the stay was perfect.

The hosts were super nice and accommodating to our every need. The apartment was modern and very clean.

Good location that felt safe.

There is an airport nearby and it’s a very very loud location as planes are constantly landing nearby . There’s only street parking and I wasn’t told until day of that I could park inside for $30 Per day and by the time I arrived (4pm ) the office was closed and I was unable to do so

Stayed in June 2023

The location was great and the room was clean with good decoration.

Stayed in May 2023

Lots of loud banging at night when people are cleaning or coming in/out of the building. Walls, floor, and ceiling seem to be very thin as we could hear everything the person above us was doing.

i liked the area and apartment itself is furnished very nicely. The staff was extremely helpful and compromising.

Stayed in April 2023

LOCATION IN AIRPORT FLIGHT PATH. LOTS OF PLANES COMING AND GOING VIRTUALLY AROUND THE CLOCK. YOU MUST BE COMFORTABLE IN AN URBAN LOCATION AND APT LIVING. NEIGHBORHOOD BEHIND APT. A BIT SKETCHY. BUILDING NOISE IN EVENING AND EARLY MORNING HOURS HIGH. NO INSTRUCTIONS FOR ROKU TV. NO INFORMATION ABOUT AREA.

STAFF VERY ATTENTIVE & FRIENDLY. APARTMENT FULLY REMODELED, COMFORTABLE AND MET NEEDS FOR SHORT DURATION STAY. MULTIPLE DOOR LOCK SYSTEM PROVIDES ENHANCED SECURITY. LOCATED ACROSS THE STREET FROM BALBOA PARK.

Stayed in March 2023

Extremely noisy. On top of traffic and airplanes (until about 11 pm), we had upstairs neighbors partying until 5 am, and walls and ceilings sre paper thin.

Comfortable with well appointed kitchen

neighborhood,it doesn’t look safe. a lot of homeless people on the streets around

apartment looks very nice and clean

Stayed in February 2023

The sofa bed was a little lumpy but descent enough for a sofa bed. The sofa bed could be cleaner as the edges were quite stained. I would feel safer if there was an extra lock at the back entrance by the bedroom just as the front has. The walls are so thin; we could easily hear people coming in and out early in the a.m. from the shared entrance which woke us up. Though we were not as bothered with the airplanes flying over us as others have mentioned in the review.

I'd like that there was an option for garage parking. The kitchenette was a great feature for the family. And being so close to Balboa Park was great. Although we didn't utilize it, the small outdoor sitting area was a nice feature. CVS across the street was so close and convenient.

Stayed in February 2023

access inconvenient. three locks to get in. walls so thin you could hear everything others did. felt like they were actually IN your apartment. patio basically two chairs on a stairway landing. parking instructions should clarify about metered parking being free overnight

nicely renovated and decorated, large, clean

Loud aircraft noise, no parking and no staff on site after 5 pm.

clean

Stayed in December 2022

the 3 main reasons I didn’t give a 10 was the neighborhood at night feels a bit sketchy- typical for a big California city - my mum and I like to walk and coming back from Gas Lamp at 9 pm with deserted streets was a bit scary but we stuck to 6th and were fine. Parking is free if you can find a spot on 6th, which we did, or metered parking is $2 50/hour, think 8am to 6 pm - got metered the last night and left at 8. The location has parking available for $30/day more if you want it. I had trouble the Roku TV system- next time, I’ll bring a DVD player and plug it in! none of the negatives were deal breakers - still give my overall stay a 9+

great central location- walking distance to zoo, waterfront, close to freeways - beautiful apartment, larger than expected, very clean, stylish furniture, comfy bed, full kitchen, strong shower, little outdoor deck

Stayed in November 2022

There was a gap in communication for check in. The host said he texted with the codes and whether we could extend our stay, but I didnt get the messages. The stairs made it difficult to move big luggages into unit. Airplanes above too noisy by the parkside window. Can hear neighboring guests at times.

Inside was very clean, spacious, well equipped. Location easy to find, near Balboa park and airport. Entry was easy once we got codes.

Stayed in July 2022

limited restaurant choices around

spacious, clean, walking distance to the Balboa park, luggage storage service, onsite front office and friendly staff

I struggled somewhat with the multiple security codes to gates, doorways and garage but appreciate these are for increased guest safety.

Clean, modern and spacious. Excellent central location to Balboa Park, shops and restaurants. Helpful onsite staff and very accommodating.

The location is great. It’s across from the park with walking distance to downtown SD

Few Issues: 1. To enter the apartment you need unlock 3 doors (After hours of travelling i felt very diff) 2. The details given in the email was not accurate (Parking fee, timing the people available for check in) 3. Area is with noise (Every minute you hear landing planes sound) 4. Parking - Very limited parking at the property (available few for +$20 addition to the room price) Over all: I am a booking.com customer for more than 10 years and I never want to recommend this property.

There is no windows/TV in the bedroom, so we felt little quite over there.
