Centrally located to everything in Hillcrest. Very walkable and lots of entertainment nearby less than 1 block from the main road. Easy access by code in and out of the complex and enjoyed having an off street parking spot as well. Beds were extremely comfy!

Excellent property and location

This is a nice property is located in the Hillcrest neighborhood. We enjoyed being in a central location to activities and being able to explore the area and walk to places for dinner. It really does have things to cook in if you prefer or need, which is unusual, and we appreciated having the chance to eat breakfast in and enjoy coffee before heading out for the day.

Weekend getaway

The property was easy to find and access. Inside was very clean with everything you need and comfortable beds. Lauren was quick to respond to our questions and very accommodating, including suggestions for places to eat in the area. Once you get the key fab, keep it for your stay, it’s makes it easier when you return. We would definitely stay here again when in the San Diego area.

This property in a quiet complex was very well maintained and equipped. We enjoyed walking to shops and restaurants on University and Washington, and although it’s not what we planned, a family member went to urgent care within walking distance. Lauren was helpful and easy to reach

Beutiful and cozy apartment

My wife and I stayed for a week while our sons were playing soccer up in Del Mar. The apartment was recently renovated and had everything we needed. It's in a small apartment building on a quite street, a block off a busy street, but still totally walk-able. Our assigned parking space in the underground garage was an elevator ride and only steps from the front door. There was a great coffee shop (Kona), excellent local restaurants (try the Parma Cucina), and even a couple small clubs all within 2-3 blocks. The owner was very responsive on the few occasions when we had a question. Easy, convenient and homey. We'd come again for sure.

What makes this property unique

Hillcrest is the perfect location in my opinion! So close to everything, including Balboa Park and the Zoo, and just a hop and a skip to beaches and downtown, making uber rides a breeze. We are also just up the hill from the airport, so you don't have to worry about a long drive after a long flight!
