"Just like the description, the house was clean, quiet and had everything I needed for a great beach stay. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"The location was more then we could of asked! Great hosts. Will be back definitely"

"Enjoyed the closeness to the beach"

"This is a wonderful location, just wish it had a view of the bay. No washer/dryer as listed but not a big deal, it was very clean and comfortable. The only complaint is the neighbors dog being loud, getting in the way of the garage when checking in and out and there are so many loud noises here at all hours."

"Studio just like in the picture!! Very clean and comfortable. We loved the special touch of chips, salsa and margaritas 😀 great location near pacific beach. We really just were in town for a quick overnight visit with my daughter but would stay again, hopefully for longer."

"Wonderful property in every way. Very clean studio apartment with thoughtful consideration of a guests needs taken care of in every way. Easy walking distance to all OB has to offer. The view was what made it truly exceptional! Loved our week and plan to return!"

"The location was great. The only issue was since the weather was bit warmer than usual it did take it a lot longer to cool down the unit. But other than that we loved it. You can't control the weather."

"Location was great - not too close, not too far from the action and the beach. We loved the space. Three adults stayed here and had two adults and a baby visit each evening. There was plenty of room for all of us to eat, hang out and even dance baby to sleep! The outdoor space was great as well. Parking spot was an extra bonus, as was the great view of the Sea World fireworks. We appreciated that beach chairs and towels were provided. We would definitely stay here again."

"The level of security, keypad lock entries and gated garage parking, helped me feel safe as a woman traveling alone. All the upgrades to the building and my apartment were beautiful. Bed was super comfortable. Apartment is spacious. Management staff were very friendly and helpful, both on-line and in person on-site. Yes, the building was next to the flight path for planes landing in San Diego, but you barely noticed when the windows were closed. I would stay again!"

"This property was a perfect spot if your going to SeaWorld or you want to be walking distance to the beach?"

"Everything was great! Floors were a little dirty, but it’s SD 💙 Will defend stay here again!"

"Great communicating management team, great location you can walk to everything and value wise 5+. However, the assigned paking space sucks big time! If you rent this property you need to drive a compact or small four door automobile to get it in the spot."

"cool little place. close to everything. parked my car and didnt drive it until i left...had all i needed, clean, and shower was huge...lol"

"The Hideaway located at Silver Terrace is a great location which is close to the city, Old Town, Little Italy, beaches and Sea World. Nice neighborhood. A great walking place is the University of San Diego nearby - beautiful. The building is actually 3 units, two on ground level and one above. We stayed in the lower unit around back. It was fine, but we thought that some simple improvement to the living area might help like lamps, a coffee table and cosy chair next to the sofa. Otherwise...

"Clean and spacious property. Loved the front patio. Stocked well. Quick and easy communication with property manager. Comfortable beds. Walking distance to bay, beach, restaurants and shopping."
