The second time I’ve stayed here, I came back for reasons! Spacious, clean, well kept up, all the amenities one could want for an amazing price! Full kitchen, full fridge, living room, small dining area, seperate bedroom, always a pleasure!

Not a thing I would change. Note- this property IS directly in the flight path, but the unit has really well insulated windows that block out MOST of the sound. And earplugs are provided, but the planes do not fly overhead after, I believe 12 midnight- 7 am.

Great Management and staff! Comfort and value.

Airport near.

This 1 BR apartment is just across the highway from San Diego's Little Italy section. It's also right off of I-5 and the entry to I-5 is easy enough for a skilled driver. While the neighborhood is otherwise quiet and you can't really hear the highway, there is much plane noise. There's a fair amount of street parking but no dedicated parking lot or garage. . The house is inside a locked gate with an unlit keypad. Once up the stairs, there's another keypad (lit) to get inside the apartment itself. The apartment is simple but equipped well enough with a kitchen, including toaster. The living room is big enough to have friends over. The only bathroom is through the bedroom, and the layout of the bathroom means someone showering will wake up someone else sleeping in the bedroom as there's no separating wall. (The WC/toilet is separate, though.) . The air-conditioning stopped working while I was there, but the property owner got a repairman onsite the same day to fix it and all was well. (That's why it's in the "Liked" section of the review!)

If you don't know the area, this section of town is immediately under the approach path for the main San Diego airport which means planes are a few hundred feet over the apartment, and those planes are *loud*! While the noise and the artificial wind and sound of the air vortexing don't bother me (I sleep with noise-canceling earbuds,) anyone who wants to sleep before the nightly airplane curfew or wake up late will need to be aware of this issue. . There is a weak spot in floor at the entry to the bedroom and I was concerned it would give way and I'd shatter an ankle. It didn't, but be aware of it. . While the apartment is on the ground floor, it's a hilly neighborhood, so you access the property via two stairs outside the gate and about 18 stairs once inside the gate. However, the inside stairs are a different height and pitch than the outside ones, so going up is easy, but when coming down the inner stairs and going out the gate, it's *very* easy to misjudge the outer stairs and fall. . The living room is big enough to have friends over, but one doesn't find out until the day of check-in that *no visitors are allowed,* period. I suggested to the property manager's staff that they update their listing's property rules to list this ahead of time, but there was enough of an obvious language barrier - they suggested I "update the booking" - that it won't get done. . When leaving the property, if you're heading to I-5 south, it requires cutting over three lanes in 500 feet as you go under the highway and merge into all the airport-bound traffic getting off the highway. . Street parking is an issue if you get to the apartment after about 20:00. Expect to walk a couple of blocks. . It's expensive, but anywhere that close to the city with freeway access and air-conditioning will be expensive.

It is very difficult to make a FAIR review... But first the nice things :)... The owner / contact of / to the Apartment was VERY KIND, the Key(less) Code, to enter the Apartment functionated perfect.... the apartment (as itself) was VERY Clean and comfortable... the Location... like 20 / 25 Minutes to the USS Midway. perfect... parking NO problem,,, maximum like 1 to 3 minutes walk from the apartment.. sometimes in front of the apartment.... this was the "good part" :)

...now the bad things :).. the Pictures on Booking show a lot of Shades ,, like Trees and Sun"Brellas"... i have not seen this also if i compared the picture of our Entrance to our Apartment!? .. The wooden Desks on the Terrace.. there are some Screws that are "looking out", so i step on one (it was my fault i thought i can go baarfeet).... and the realy Problem..ok.. i can only say it was for us , maybe i am also to soft for such staff was the airplain noise... the Apartment is direct .. but DIRECT on the landing route for the San Diego Airport.. partly it was fun, to see all the Airplains.... when you Think ("Dramatisation") you can touch there wheells.... but if you are not an Airplain Fann, you should not got, Partly the "landing" goes between 6h00 and Midnight... so i personaly would not go again.
