I rented Joe's condo for 4 weeks from Oct. to early Nov. 2015, and thoroghly enjoyed my stay there! The location was perfect, in the trendy Hillcrest area with abundance of great restaurants, Japanese, Mexican, Italian, etc., all around, as well as McDonald's, Jack in the box, etc. for those that fancy fast food, all within 5 min walk. Ralph's and Trader Joe's grocery stores, and Starbucks are just 100 meters away. Balboa Park is 15 min walk. Just off of 163, Washington St., and University Ave. makes getting around super easy by car or public transport. The apartment complex is very quiet and well-kept with swimming pool, gym, assigned underground parking spot, and the tenants (neighbours) are courteous and friendly. The apartment itself is very clean, well furnished and fully stocked kitchen with everything you can possibly need, full variety of pots & pans, dishes, utensils, linen, towels, spares for everything... The renovation is a bit older, but is nonetheless cozy and comfortable (I understand the owner will be remodelling in 2016), and the appliances that include washer and dryer are all new. The owner is very responsive and pleasant to deal with. Always responds promptly, and very helpful and considerate. All-in-all it's great a condo for great value, and I highly recommend it to travellers looking for hassle-free, value accomodation! You just can't go wrong with this one.
