Select Stays

“Do NOT stay here! The police sirens and ambulance sirens, the unhoused population right outside your door yelling obscenely, the unit in dire need of repairs and repaint. No need to choose one when you can have them all here! The host is no help. I complained about the condition of the unit the first day I arrived. The host sent a cleaning woman that changed the sheets. That’s IT. The sink is falling apart, there are missing closet doors, the cabinet scrape the ceiling when you open them, it wasn’t clean on arrive at all. The photos posted are inaccurate. The unit is clearly OUTDATED and the host couldn’t care less. The sheets and pillowcases were even dirty. I slept on the tiny sofa to avoid the bed. Do NOT recommend!”

“The good. The apartment was in a good location. It was walkable for the Gaslamp Quarter and several coffee shops/restaurants/stores. A limited amount of parking is available, but that's $20/nt extra, so inquire about that otherwise you're parking off-site and probably paying more. The lot surrounding the building is dilapidated and a bit unsightly. There's a lot of homeless in San Diego, so don't be surprised to see them hanging around. We didn't have any issues with anyone and never felt unsafe. We just slept and made a few meals there, otherwise we were gone most of each day. We took issue with their auto responses to our questions, with no real solutions. No kitchen towels or paper towels and we had to buy a spatula for the grill. The rug and couch had visible stains. The floor under the couch was dirty, the stove hood had the ole greasy/dust layer, and the vent cover in the bathroom was filthy. So if you have modest expectations, you won't be disappointed. WE will NOT stay again.”

“Parking was terrible, spent about $300 on parking over the course of a 5 day stay. Too many homeless people right outside. Not the cleanest Airbnb I’ve stayed at. Pullout couch was broken and there was no mattress even though there were supposed to be 2 beds. Keypad didn’t work, got locked out because key was left inside, when someone came to unlock, tried charging a $150 lockout fee. While trying to handle issues with getting in, was told that we’d figure it out the next day because she didn’t want to handle it at that point in time. After the initial issues, the rest of the stay was okay. But wouldn’t stay there again.”

“The place was in a great location. It was conveniently located easy to get to everything you need or want to do. That being said when we got there the toilet was broken, but Jay was great and sent a Handyman out within the hour. Later that evening we got into our bed and it felt almost sandy. I was a little confused but thankfully there was a washer and dryer in the unit so we were able to wash the bedding just to ensure that it was clean. After we washed it, we did notice that the sheets were like peeling. Which very much could’ve been why they felt like they were Sandy. Overall, Jay was very responsive and very attentive to anything that needed to be handled. I didn’t reach out on regards to the sheets feeling Sandy. But we loved that it was very centrally located. And extremely close to Coronado.”

“Overall a cleaner unit would be better. Hairdryer doesn’t work well because it’s clogged. Ironing board is very old. The outside of the unit, the building is very dirty”

“no hot water.. dishwasher broken.. tried sending a confusing message to get to try and get me to pay 50$ for late check out.. no personality to space”

“Place was very clean, they have a great cleaning staff. It is run very much like a hotel with no check in desk. There was some communication hiccups, asked for an early check in or drop off and I didn’t get a response. Most messages are an automatic system. They did have a hotline number to call when my code for the door didn’t work. Biggest gripe is the parking situation. They have a few spots you can request to reserve for yourself for an extra fee but none were available when I asked. Parking outside that is abysmal. Everywhere is a tow away or paid parking. I shilled out an extra $80 just in parking alone.”

“I had a very unfortunate instance at this location. In the middle of the night on my first night, a stranger entered the air Bnb using the keypad. When I was woken up ,the person muttered something and quickly walked away. i immediately reported the incident to the host and Airbnb. I’ve asked several times for an explanation of how this security violation happened and they refuse to provide a rationale.”

“Host did not mention that a homeless encampment was literally outside of the entrance to the property. Homeless men and women doing drugs and shooting up god knows what which was unsafe for myself aswell as my guest. The host then added that homeless people *can be present* outside the property after I sent pictures of the situation. Was told I would be given a refund and 8 days later I still have not yet been issued one.”

“disappointed since the beginning. Dirty place with dirty rags and towels on the ground when n h walking in. Inaccurate photos. Was not able to get my phone back because he couldnt communicate with his cleaning staff on getting me my phone back. terrible experience.”
