Everything about the stay was awesome! We were 15 minutes from UCSD, where our older son is attending. We were also walking distance from ice cream, dinner and coffee. We loved it and look forward to going back!
Renee the host was super welcoming and helpful with an issue we encountered during check-in. We appreciated her sincere efforts to rectify the situation for us. The property was located near coffee shops and the waterfront. We would recommend it for a single or a couple.

The property is perfect for two in a great location!
This studio is a converted garage in an ideal location. There is a terrific little patio out front with beautiful succulent plants. It is newly remodeled with a nice kitchen. The best part is that it is only a few blocks away from Mission Bay where you can enjoy the ocean. You can ride their bike easily over to the ocean side as well. I really did enjoy my stay in this studio.
First of all, I really have to hand it to Renee. She was excellent in her communication with us. We accidentally lost the keys to the rental at the beach 🙃 (I would suggest storing them in the lock box when you go out) and she was very rapid in getting a replacement to us.
Secondly, this has to be the most comfortable bed I've ever stayed in at any rental. The shower also had excellent water pressure and heat! Perfect little rental for two people.
We really enjoyed sipping our coffee outside in the gated courtyard in the mornings. The location was in a very quiet neighborhood. We rented bikes for the week, and Pacific Beach is only about a 5-8 minute bike ride. All the restaurants and shops on Garnet were also about a 5 minute bike ride.
Overall, I would highly recommend this rental. 😁

Not as advertised
The condo is a converted garage space at back of another rental property. Your entry is through an alley where you park next to garbage cans. The courtyard for relaxing is cluttered with rusted unusable bicycles and beach chairs that would not be taken if left out front with a FREE sign on them. Inside you will find a nicely redecorated space with a modern feel. Water pressure is good and space was clean.....with exception of skylight wells that are filled with creepy crawly things. Big spider webs with a large variety of spiders. Variety of silverfish bugs crawling about as well. Read other reviews to hear about bike quality. They should not even be mentioned as they are unusable! You will have a 10 minute walk to the ocean and a 5-7 minute walk tot he bay. Reasonable price for the area. Room looks goods but courtyard mess and skylight ecosystem make you question the remainder of the property.
The place was is exactly as described. The parking was easy the check in process was easy.
We love the out private patio area as it was a heat wave when we were there and it was nice just to sit there with out all the crowds.
It was quiet but close enough to everything that we could walk or drive.
This was a perfect place for my partner and I. We kept saying we could stay here longer.
Thank you so much!
We loved it. It smelled clean when we walked in which is really important to us. The bed is soooo comfy! The shower is hot and great pressure. Everything worked well and we throughly enjoyed our stay!!
This property is perfectly located in a quiet neighborhood and is exactly as advertised. 15 min walk to the beach and everything MB and PB have to offer. Also a plus for working cooling system, hot water heater, excellent water pressure and private patio. 100% recommend for the value.
Perfect studio for 1 person or couple, amazing location
I so enjoyed my 2 weeks in this studio. It was very nice to have private outdoor space to be able to work outside during the day or enjoy dinner outside at night. Very walkable to grocery stores, bars/restaurants, as well as the bay! Communicating with Renee was very easy and she even notified my I could check-in early due to her cleaning staff being done.
We really enjoyed our time at this property. Everything was very clean and comfortable. We loved sitting outside on the little patio. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
Simple, clean, updated, comfortable. Manager was very responsive to our questions throughout our stay. Quiet neighborhood. Beach was a quick scooter ride away. Thanks!
The location and layout was perfect for us. Loved the private courtyard. Easy access to boardwalk since we were riding bikes to Mission beach where family was staying. Cute neighborhood and quiet at night. On site parking was a plus. The inside was clean with all newer finishes.
Amazing remodel of a garage into a cute, comfy studio with a lovely garden patio. Pretty close walk or scooter ride to the bay and the beach. The bed is very comfortable and the sky lights make the room feel light and spacious. The kitchen is very nice but could use more cooking utensils like a spatula. There are two bikes--unfortunately one had a flat tire that would not hold air, but there were lots of electric scooters around the neighborhood so we used them instead.
Communication with Renee was easy, prompt and helpful. Thanks for a beautiful weekend!

Cozy unit with sweet courtyard! Great spot close to Pacific Bch with two beach bikes for sporting ar
We were here for 1 wk with 3 sets of towels. We requested extra towels for our length of our stay. Bikes were lovely we did stop in for a chain repair & tighting and a bit of oil other than that it was very nice to get exercise while vacationing. Please tighten the handle bar on the bike with the aqua rim for the next guests. Thank you very much Renee & Per we will be back. Love the sunshine!! Lovely!!

Great Stay
A great stay and the most comfortable bed ever. Wasn't so keen to be woken up early due to skylights with sun shining through but, hey, SUN! A few dishes to use in the oven with associated tools would be necessary if you plan to eat in as we did. Good bathroom with great shower. A chest of drawers (IKEA?) would have been very useful also as we found we were living out of suitcases being there for 14 nights. Pretty courtyard with table, chairs and umbrella - a nice space to sit out and have breakfast. Two bikes provided which we did not use but noticed that they needed some attention if you intend to cycle. Really good location altogether with a choice of boardwalks - the nearer, and quieter, bayside or the busier Pacific beach side. Both recommended. Thank you Renee. We'll almost certainly return.
