Sweet Studio - Great Neighborhood
We had a great visit to San Diego and the quaint Kensington neighborhood. It was easy to walk a short block to Adams and explore dining and shops, and evening else was a short drive. ThThr apartment was clean and well furnished.

We stayed at this awesome little studio to celebrate my girlfriend’s birthday. We were able to check everything we wanted to do off our list! Everything we needed and wanted was within 15-20 minutes. Definitely coming back! The host is very welcoming and responsive.

Zen Getaway
This unit is absolutely AMAZING! the host was quick to respond. Super accommodating to our arrival time. the entire unit was more then expected. the outdoor seating area was so perfect for reflection time Zen garden and was immaculate landscaping. The studio was larger then I expected. Now let me tell you about that stove! My dream stove needless to say we ate in and I loved every minute of cooking. Bathroom was fully stocked. Loved the beach chairs and beach towels for our park visits no sitting on the ground. Will Absolutely stay again. made our weekend perfect!

Traveler Beware
The renters from upstairs will ruin your vacation. They are loud and inconsiderate. Kept us up every night after 12 am. Sounds like they're moving furniture all night. Then they wake up at 5:30 am for work and start grinding coffee at that time. When they leave their dog barks and barks.I've never left a negative review but this was a horrible stay. It's too bad because the studio is nice and comfortable but it's not fair to the travelers. Didn't confront tenants because you never know how people react. Hopefully owners will do something because I won't be the only one complaining.
