Excellent for groups

Perfect for my large family, in-laws, friends. The steam shower never worked, and the electrical switches were confusing, but all in all the stay was great! Great location with easy local things to do, and plenty of space for all! I would book it again!

Balboa Park

The property was in a fantastic location: park, cafes, coffee shops all within walking distance. Cleaning supplies, coffee, tea, sugar and nice shower supplies were provided. The back downstairs bedroom could use a bookshelf for the guest to put makeup bags on. The upstairs shower seems to only be hot or cold.

Quick Work Trip

The overall experience was good. There are some things that need to be upgraded. The one negative I can say is the master bedroom not having any blinds or drapes. It's way too bright in there.

Run down, great location

The property was pretty rundown. Lots of little things wrong with the place. A little TLC and it could really be nice. But it doesn’t seem as if there’s much effort being put into that.

Great Location & Spacious, But Needs Maintenance & Realistic Noise Rules

We recently stayed at this condo and had a good experience overall, but there are a few things future guests should know.The Good: The location is fantastic—close to great restaurants, entertainment, and attractions. Street parking was plentiful, which was a huge plus. The host communicated well, making check-in and check-out smooth. The condo was easy to access and reasonably priced for the area. It’s also very spacious, with comfortable beds and couches, plenty of seating in the common areas, and great views of Balboa Park from the patios.The Not-So-Good: A significant number of floor tiles were ripped up or damaged, and many cabinets were unhinged or broken. The master bedroom’s patio door had no lock, which was a safety concern. The noise restrictions (50 decibels during the day, 45 in the evening) were unrealistic for a 6-bedroom condo that sleeps 15 people. Most bedroom and bathroom doors were hard to open/close and loud, ironically exceeding the noise limit. Outlets were inconveniently placed, making charging difficult.Overall, while the space, location, and comfort were great, maintenance issues and strict noise rules made it less ideal for a large group. Fixing these would greatly improve the experience.

Great place, perfect location, beautiful house!

Everything would have been perfect only if we can locate and know where the light switches are. It was such a puzzle - I recommend a map of the switches and instructions. The ceiling fan in one room doesn't have a switch to turn off. Also, the floor in the master bathroom which is shared bathroom can be slippery.

Responded quickly to problem

Immediately upon upon checking in we noted the elevator was broken. Called Josh and he attempted to relocate us however was unable. Did offer compensation for not having access to the elevator. Enjoy the facility would recommend this condo..

Perfection

Our party of 10 loved this property. The location is minutes from beaches, food, and nightlife. Everything about this house far exceeded our expectations. The beds were so incredibly comfortable that every single person raved about them. The only thing that could have been better is the lighting in the upstairs bathroom. The lights were pretty dim. If we return, we will be booking this same property. Thank you San Diego and AvantStay for the experience and memories!
