    It would be a 5 star, but they are stingy with supplies. We ran out of garbage sacks, shampoo and conditioner, and toilet paper. 1 and 1/2 rolls for 2 adults for 7 nights. It was hard to find toilet paper on foot.

    A great, affordable option in a less-than-affordable area! I was in town for work, the property was just what I needed and the hosts were responsive. GREAT location, quiet. If you are going to spend a lot of time out of the apartment, this is the perfect choice.

    Very well appointed unit. Studio apartment with fully equipped kitchen, comfortable couch and bed and TV with all cable stations. Quiet and safe neighborhood with lots of parking. 1 block from beach and one block from harbor. Close to Balboa pier and short drive to restaurants. Janet (owner) is very informative and easy. Always answers phone and texts and very accommodating. May just be our new home away from home.

    This apartment is in a quiet neighborhood close to the ocean and the bike/walking path that will take you to the pier, restaurants, and shops. It's very comfortable and we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay, including beach towels and chairs. Loved the shared patio, too!

    Check in was easy. Kitchen was a full kitchen. Stocked well. Except for spices. Not enough tp. No box of tissues. No dish rags and only one dish towel. Not a big deal really. We bought tp. The unit has lots of storage. Bed very comfy. Really liked the outdoor area. Had a lovely breakfast out there. Used beach chairs and umbrellas.would stay here again. Would refer to friends too

    Everything was very well stocked. The shower was a little small to be able to wash your feet. This unit did not have a garage to park in even though there were three empty garage spaces. That would’ve made it a lot better if we didn’t have to hunt for street parking.

    Studio apt was very well equipped!! Although we didn't use the kitchen much during our short stay, I was impressed with how well it is equipped!!! Instructions on the use of the apt were very clear & appreciated. The only suggestion is to put the outside address # in a place that can be seen from the street. When the patio umbrella is up, the address # is not visible from the street.

    Great place for our weekend get away. Enjoyed the ease of parking which can be hard in a coastal town, great price and location nestled between the ocean and bay. Walkable to all the sites, restaurants and stores. Would stay again, as we plan on doing this trip yearly now.
