The host did inform us there was no elevator and that we were directly under the flight path of San Diego airport. There was times with the various security codes wouldn't work. The neighborhood was a not so safe several blocks underneath the flight path.

Can’t say enough about how great this place is…great location. Yes, on a busy street and in the flight path but there is a curfew on incoming planes between 11:30 pm and 6:30 am. Didn’t bother me at all.

This place was WAY oversold and with false advertising. Two blind pieces fell as we opened them. The beds are extremely uncomfortable, airplane noise is horrific. No cushions on the patio furniture. Deceiving advertising is an understatement. They refused to try to make anything right.Needless to say, we ended up getting a hotel room.

Great Launching Point for Weekend Getaway

We stayed here during a weekend trip to San Diego. The immediate area around the apartment building is still what might be considered an area "in transition," but when you get a block or two away it feels safe to walk around. Location is great for walkers -- we easily got down to Little Italy, Gaslamp Quarter, Embarcadero. And there's also breweries/restaurants within a mile of the unit. Getting in/out of the apartment was easy -- it's all keypad so no worries about keys. Worth noting that this is definitely in the flight path of San Diego Airport, so during the day and evening you'll hear jets flying low above every few minutes.

Great spot, in the middle of everything in san diego. We went to the zoo, little italy, and petco and didn’t move our car once. And parking is free on the streets around it. Would definitely stay again.

The studio apartment was comfortable and had the usual amenities. I was unable to get a steady connection to the site’s wi-fi and was a little concerned about the condition of the area immediately around the property, but it wasn’t an issue during my stay. Free parking is available on the street, but not always adjacent to the property. It should be noted that the property is in the flight path of the airport; low-flying jets could be heard every 5-10 minutes during the day. The property is an easy walk to Balboa Park, and an easy drive to the freeway. The bed was comfy and I appreciated the table and chairs on the patio that overlooks the park.
