We had a wonderful long term stay in this home while my son participated in a program at UCSD. The location was close to the highways and made getting most anywhere in San Diego really easy.
The bed was comfortable and there was good water pressure in the shower. The water didn't smell or taste like the "beach water" we are used to back home, so that was a huge plus. The apartment is small, but it was the perfect size for my son and I. There was lots of storage space, which really helped since we were there for about 6 weeks.
Being from NC it took us a while to realize that you can have the windows open with fans in them to bring in extra cool air, even when the AC is on (a big no-no at home). This helped a lot to cool things down. Miles was easy to communicate with, and was quick to respond any time we needed assistance. The parking space is small, but I parked there daily with my mini-van and didn't have any issues (though I did get very good at parallel parking in the process!) The neighbors I met were all friendly, and we felt very safe in the neighborhood.
If you are visiting during the summer, don't miss the Sea World fireworks! You can see them from close by, toward Famosa Slough. You can even cross the main road and walk through the park to get closer and an even better view! While we were visiting there were fireworks every Friday, Saturday and Sunday night. Such a fun treat for us!
We also really enjoyed the skate park and Ocean Beach bike trail. I don't typically ride on busy roads, but it is a very safe 7 minute bike ride to the trail and I even felt safe bringing my 9 year old along. Wide bike lanes and sidewalks make it easy to navigate :).
We are sad to go and would definitely stay here again for sure. We really enjoyed our visit!
