I give the property a 4/5 star rating solely based on my preferences in a place to stay. Additionally, opinions differ and the following review is based solely on ours. The studio was very, very clean and well kept. As the description states, it's only 10 minutes outside of the city, but 10 minutes into the hills, at night, without cellular reception, can be somewhat intimidating. The place was easy to find during the day, as the directions are perfect, but at night, we experienced some dense fog which made travelling up/through the hills quite difficult...additionally, if you do get lost, there is not any cellular reception to assist you. I recommend bringing a standalone GPS.
The apartment is exactly as described. If I would have known ahead of time, I would have dusted off my old Garmin and used that to navigate. From what I understand, Verizon is the only company with reception, but don't take that as gospel. There was a recommendation for Mo's Egg House for breakfast...and that was delicious.
Also, when we arrived, it was pushing about 95 degrees. The A/C was not on when we got in, so the studio was an oven. I understand conserving energy and everything, but it was blazing hot inside when we arrived.
All in all, once we figured out how to navigate to and from, and got the A/C turned on...the place was great. It's quiet and you get to experience the woods for a little bit. It's a beautiful drive and it's only about 20 minutes to wine country and 15 minutes to Pechanga Casino. I would stay here again now that I've been. Thanks for the clean studio and great hospitality.
