Balboa Peninsula duplex
Location is good and bad. It’s walking distance to the fun zone and balboa pier however facing balboa blvd it is very loud with car traffic. During summer months you have to keep the windows open so it’s loud inside the unit. The carport parking spot in the back is pretty much for a motorcycle, it’s hard for a sedan to fit. The place was clean but definitely needs some painting updates on the doors etc. The master bedroom bed is comfortable but the box spring is the squeakiest bed I have ever slept on. They stock the place with towels and some toiletries but they do not give you enough trash bags for a week long stay. Overall it was a nice stay but for the price I wouldn’t go back.

Overall I would say the location is very nice and close to the pier which was convenient . The house was located on the main roadway which I didn’t like and the parking listed says SUVs can fit and that was not accurate. The only car capable of parking in the spot provided has to be a compact/ small vehicle. The cleanliness wasn’t the greatest either but not horrible. Also wasn’t a huge fan of the check in process and getting charged additional money for my dogs to come. When I booked the place it says pet friendly and then after we pay and are already at the residence we are told we have to pay an additional 500 for each dog. That upset me and the price was ultimately dropped to a lower price, however this should be told prior to booking the place. Overall we didn’t have a horrible experience but I probably wouldn’t stay here again for the price we paid.
