Going into renting an apartment for a week's stay in San Diego, you know what to expect. It's not a hotel with fancy amenities or turndown service. But, for the price and location, this is the perfect place.
The (sparse) negatives:
In Pacific Beach, you know that you're going to get some nightlife noise, so be prepared to be woken up by the frat boys drinking at 2AM on a Tuesday. It's a college-age town after all. Several bars are right around the corner, which is actually a plus for some people.
The unit was a little dirty as well, but nothing out of the ordinary. Just shows signs of being used and previous guests leaving their marks via stains, etc.
The positives:
Location is #1. We walked to Pacific beach easily, and if you're up for a longer walk, Mission Beach is in the vicinity as well. Also, there are no shortage of drinking and eating options.
The unit itself had all the amenities you'd want out of renting a vacation apartment: full kitchen, pullout sofa for the extra people, high-speed internet and tv, and a friendly watermelon that greeted us as we visited. 2 bedrooms is nice too, for the area. It's a perfect spot to crash while you're exploring San Diego.
Overall, good experience for the price, and I'd stay again!
