Great location within walking distance to Balboa Park and many amenities Hillcrest has to offer.
I love that it was in a gated duplex complex, which made it feel very safe and secure. The neighbors are also very quiet.
Bed was very comfortable. Kitchen is VERY tight, so only room for one. Nice little fenced back patio off the kitchen is convenient and was an amenity I wasn’t expecting, so very pleased there.
The parking was not as easy as the listing suggested (and I now have a couple parking tickets to show for it). Aside from a few spots that quickly fill, most parking within a few blocks is metered and on a 2 hour time limit. This isn’t a big deal on sundays and in the evenings when the meters aren’t enforced, but if you’re there during the day, it gets a little tricky. This also makes loading/unloading rather inconvenient. Manageable, but inconvenient doing it solo.
The price did seem a little high compared to some other similar available units that are more updated, but then again, the location was rather outstanding, so there’s a trade off.
Overall, good, clean, safe place to stay. Seamless check-in/check-out, and great for out of town guests looking to explore the city.
