Well located, very welcoming, safe and relaxing.
Pros: Itโs location was excellent, with a fantastic view of Balboa Park. So, I have a fantastic view of the sunrise every morning. The bird calls early morning and watching the changing colour palette as the sun is coming up every morning was so therapeutic and breathtaking - simply awesome! It is also quite centrally located - the Downtown area and historic Gaslamp district is also within walking distance. If you persevere, you can even walk all the way to the Seaport Village and the marina promenade. Just make sure you put on good walking shoes. There are many eateries along the way to quench your thirst and satisfy your appetite. If your are lucky, a DJ may also be on duty spinning cool tunes at some of the open bars along the marina. Even my friend who has settled in San Diego with his family mentioned that the studio apartment is in a good location. The staff at the apartment complex is also very helpful, so makes you feel at home.
Cons: There is no lift, so had to climb up and down at least 3 flights of stairs since my unit happens to be on the 3rd floor. While it is good exercise, it can be daunting especially when you are already so exhausted having expended your energy walking all day. I didnโt mind the sound of airplanes landing since they provided ear plugs. Most times, I was already so tired by the time I get back to my studio and slept soundly.

Pros: Room was pleasant. Staff were friendly. Secure parking at cost and property access with coded gates. It was a bit prison like going in but I was greatful for this!
Cons: Location did not feel very safe and the uber driver said not to walk around at night. No lift to 3rd floor and thin walls too.

Great place for a San Diego visit!
Pros: Amazing Studio, well located centrally in San Diego. Friendly and helpful staff that responded quickly to my inquiries. Unlike some other comments, the area felt very safe, even for a solo female traveler (some homelessness is normal in Californian cities). Would love to stay there for long-term. Overall a great experience and definitely worth visiting.
