if you're looking for a walkable place to stay that's dog friendly this is a good location in the Hillcrest neighborhood. There is a Sprouts is right around the corner and you are a very short drive (or long walk) to all the bars and restaurant. I traveled with my wife, newborn son and two dogs. The price was also not bad for what we got. There is room for improvement though. It wasn't quite as clean as we would have liked. I found myself needing to wipe everything down before we went inside. Also the couch in the unit we stayed in was VERY uncomfortable. It felt like I was sitting on the frame. It was an OK place to stay, and it was relatively cheap. Next time I'm in the area I may spend a little more to stay somewhere nicer.
