This place is an affordable little gem. Not the most attractive of buildings outside, but inside the unit is well appointed, modern and comfortable. The balcony faces some power lines and lower buildings so it is not an onobstructed view to the ocean but it is a great place for coffee in the morning and having the balcony doors open makes the living space feel like a hideaway in the sky. And the location is phenomenal. It is on the ocean side of the peninsula, steps from the sand on the Pacific side. It is also a couple of blocks to the bay, marina, some of the best coffee shops, restaurants and hangout spots in Mission Beach.
Edgar and his team were very responsive, including responding within 15 minutes to an issue with the heat that was apparently caused by the power surges (due to winter weather in San Diego a few days earlier) and needed only a reset of the fuse. They even brought a couple of space heaters as back up. Throughout the stay it was clear they were committed to a quality experience. A note about the heat, it is apparently radiative heating in the ceiling which actually gives the unit a very natural warmth since it is not blowing from a central source or a space heater. You might need to tinker with the thermostats (two, one in the living area and one in the bedroom) but when you have it dialed in it is a very natural experience. Also, cooling during the day is easily accomplished by getting a cross wind between the bedroom window and the balcony door. You won’t want to leave the bedroom window open indefinitely as it opens right onto the main walkway in front of the units and so any noise from passers transfers easily. But it cools the place down quickly during the cooler months. I didn’t need the fans although fans are provided.
Overall I highly rate this spot.
