We spent four nights in this delightful apartment in Feb 2021. It was a workation for us. We’re renovating our home and needed to get away while they jackhammered. Our priority was to have a space where we could both work in a neighborhood that we didn’t know but had heard great things about. The experience was way better than we had expected.
The apartment is much nicer than photos can convey. The layout has great flow. Fully equipped kitchen with everything you’ll need. Super clean. Loved the shower. Sweet powder room and master BR upstairs with a small deck with a great view. The beds are way more comfortable than we have at home. High-end foam mattresses; you’ll sleep like a baby. Private patio that we used a lot for work and dining.
The host is terrific. She lives in the master house, which I overwhelmingly prefer. Super responsive and helpful. She went out of her way to make our visit as pleasant as possible. She provides a binder with everything you need to explore the neighborhood.
The location is just south of downtown; close to everything you’ll want to see as a visitor to SD. The neighbor is super walkable. Lots of very friendly people walking around; many with dogs and/or kids. I worried about safety because the area was sketchy about 20 yrs ago, but that’s all changed. It’s going through a major regentrification, which is great but I fear that most of what makes the neighborhood so special could be engineered out.
I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Exceeded my expectations in many ways.
