"This is the 2nd time we've stayed at this property. We absolutely love the location and the view! The condo works out perfect for our family. It's walkable to so many shops, restaurants and fun things to do! It looks like they may have painted the unit, added some decor and fixed it up a bit from last time. We'll stay again next time! Highly recommend. "

"The location in La Jolla was great, but there was no parking available. The apartment building is very old and we were not aware it would be a downstairs unit. We ended up getting woken up in the middle of the night and throughout the mornings because of people simply walking around and sitting on the bed. You can literally hear their every move-especially people wearing heels. It was very unpleasantly loud. We wouldn’t have stayed here if I had known it was a downstairs unit. The listing also...

"We loved this property and its location was unbeatable. Property staff were incredibly responsive to our questions regarding the portable AC unit and parking really wasn’t too bad after we got the hang of it. My only complaint is that we’re too old and arthritic for a low platform bed with a 4 inch mattress. If that were updated, we’d absolutely stay here again. "

"We were there for a tournament. The property was really close to the fields. The apartment was roomy, and very clean, and it was nice having a decently stocked kitchen. The grounds were well kept and it was quiet at night. The property manager responded quickly when I had a question. The apartment has been minimally updated -- new cupboard fronts not new cupboards. Cheap IKEA furniture throughout. Looks fine, but isn't as comfortable as I would like. There were no bath mats, and no extra towels....
