We are former Encinitas/Cardiff residents and returned for a weekend to visit our old haunts and friends. This property was the perfect place to stay. Here is what we especially noticed:- Great location: Close to the I-5 and equidistant to either downtown Encinitas or the beach.- Very comfortable unit and well outfitted.- Comfy outdoor patio area.- Available off-street parking.Bottom line: We'd definitely stay here again next time we're in town. But, for those unaware of the trains running through Encinitas, you do near the train whistles at all hours of the day/night...not a big deal for us, but something to be aware of if you've never visited before.

We had a great stay and would stay here again. The location was amazing. Short walk to the beach, restaurants, and the train stop. The host responded quickly to our questions. The space is small, but perfect for two people. The decor could use updating, but it was very reasonable for the price. The place was very clean. The unit shares walls with a large house, but with the private entrance in the back we had complete privacy. It was easy to find free parking on the street. The beach towels and beach chairs were appreciated. Our only complaint is that trains go through the town throughout the night (11 pm, midnight, 3 am, 5 am, 6 am, etc) and blare their horns which woke us up every time so our first night’s sleep was terrible. After that we used a white noise app on our phone which worked to drown out the horn noise.

we love encinitas and this apartment is perfect for a week or two stay. Our only issue was that we couldn't get the washing machine to work and the host did not try to get it working.

This guest didn't inform us about the washing machine not working. I contacted our appliance repairman as soon as I saw this comment, and he is coming today to fix the problem. We always try our best to make any necessary repairs immediately.

We enjoyed our month long stay in Joe’s apartment. The location couldn’t be better. We walked everywhere. Initial minor issues were quickly addressed & resolved. The shower was great. In situ washer & dryer was a huge plus. Upgrades to kitchen supplies & furnishings would be a welcome improvement but overall a very satisfying stay.
