We really enjoyed our stay at the studio! It was perfect for our short visit to SD. The location was really great- we loved exploring University and Normal Heights (loved Parkhouse Eatery, Pop Pie and the vintage shops!). We also really enjoyed exploring the neighborhood and looking at all the darling old homes nearby. It was super close to Balboa, though not quite close enough to walk. The studio itself felt really private and the garden patio was pretty dreamy, we wish we had more time to enjoy it! The kitchenette was perfectly adequate for storing our leftovers and having a sip to drink. Everything felt tidy and tended to and the water pressure/temp in the shower was great. All in all, it was a perfect little getaway spot!
