My husband and I stayed here for a month working from home. We wanted a change of pace and somewhere we could enjoy.
Positives:
- The apartment is in a great location, close to many cafes and restaurants. There is a lot of outdoor seating and 5th Ave closes to cars during peak/weekend hours
- We both found a place in the apartment where we could work comfortably
- Allows dogs
- Chiefy Cafe is in the same building. The owner is fantastic and gave our dog treats every time we passed by. They have great açaí bowls. Def recommend.
- 30min walk to Balboa park
Things to be aware of:
- The wifi was not great for zoom video calls
- There was construction right across from the apartment during our entire stay. Daily jackhammering at 7am. Noise would stop around 3-4pm. We brought our noise canceling headphones and sometimes they were not enough. We live in a city so we’re used to street/city noise but the construction noise was a lot.
- For anyone bringing their dog—the sidewalks don’t have grass
