great location
Property has a great location. The place made for a good stay. The bed in the bedroom alone droops in the middle bad like a taco, but the bedding was clean and we slept alright, just woke up smooshed to each other. There was sand all over the coffee table and floor, but maybe that's to be expected that close to the beach. It rained pretty hard while we were there and the bedroom with 2 beds in it got some water in it, not sure how, the windows were closed. Over place made for a good quick weekend stay with our friends.

So-so property
Great access to beach, Belmont and eateries. Check in instructions need to be updated as there is a keypad at the garage now and no security door only the front door…issues with pizza sauce on the wall above the trash can inside ( that we cleaned off with a paper towel) and the patio table was filthy-we cleaned it also so we could use it…there were only 2 beach chairs that were usable…we enjoyed the cool temps and the close proximity to the beach 🏝️

Upon arrival there was a car parked in our garage; then to our surprise there were people in our unit that didn’t understand how addresses work. We ended up having to find a new rental to stay in

Nice Beach location
Not ever staying in San Diego before we didn't know quite what to expect. It was wonderful being so close to the beach. Easy walking to everything you need. You are pretty much on top of each other-not much privacy (curtains very thin) but I think that's just San Diego. Neighbors were respectful of noise at least, but have to keep windows open at night if you don't want to feel hot and stuffy. Definitely a challenge to park in the garage unless you are very confident in backing up in tight spaces (primarily a challenge because of the large dumpster right behind the garage) and we had a full size car...suv or truck would be even more challenging, as listing suggests. Home is old and dated but clean and sufficient for what you're getting (location!!) In small print, the lack of AC is mentioned and we didn't catch that before we booked. If you stay in warmer days, the house does not cool off much. It was very stuffy when we first arrived and took a long time to get comfortable the first night. We were very warm the entire time, even with keeping fans running and windows open, though it improved a little keeping windows open (note-there are a couple of screens that have tears...might want to repair) If you don't sleep well when it's warm, might not be the place for you. Back bedroom bed we found out our last night was very comfortable but the room with two beds are very saggy. Might consider replacing with one similar to the other bedroom. Overall, a good experience. Would stay again if there was AC or. better fans to cool things down and move the air better.

Great location, comfortable beds
Perfect price for the location. Got what we expected, a decent base for a San Diego stay. The beach is a stone’s throw away, the paths on both the ocean and bay sides were great for walks and runs. The upstairs dining chairs are very loud when moved but the guests upstairs were conscientious. The area homeless are evident but not a problem.

Everything was great. The only thing I would recommend is to put some rubber or felt pads under the chairs. When you are in the bottom unit it is REALLY loud when people upstairs move the chairs.

Great Place!
We were very happy with our stay at this property! The location is great, and it has a garage that my husband’s lifted truck fit into (tight, but it fit). Compared to other places we’ve rented in this area, the rooms are larger, especially the room with 2 beds! The living room was roomy too. We used the grill to cook fish from my hubby’s fishing trip on one of the days. We loved riding our bicycles and/or walking to breakfast and dinner the other days. Nice patio and close to the beach! Owner(s) were helpful and very responsive to my questions!

home away from home
Locality is excellent. Ana was helpful via phone. Immediate respond was truly appreciated. Everything I was looking for in a place was here. I'.m very thankful. I just wish the instruction mentioned I have to go thru another entrance that was marked on the next property rather than me crawling in 2 dumpster on the side of the property before I finally realized where the entrance was. But over all property is walking distance to everything you will need.

Disappointed
Great location but upon arrival it took us over two hours to get settled in because there was a car parked infront of our garage. Dishes were grossly dirty, mold was in the bath tub, Tuesday morning the cleaning crew upstairs was rearranging the apartment and being loud(at least it sounded like it). This was a birthday celebration for my friend and her birthday (tuesday) we got food ready to grill and hang out and right when we were going outside to grill the gardeners showed up with a gas powered leaf blower (not a problem but that should be told to renters so we could have been prepared) Upon us leaving that day we were bothered by unexpected visitors saying that they were told they could put their stuff in the house even though we still had more than 2 hours until check out. Fan in the room with two beds doesn't work, more than half the light switches in the house didn't work and candles put out for guest also didn't work and the TV controllers didn't work properly.

Close to beach
The place was ok, could have been cleaner. There was 2 bedrooms with three beds and terrible mattresses. I mean terrible. Tried to sleep on the couches and it wasn’t any better. Close to the beach and restaurants, which was super nice. There was a parking spot that was perfect for a charger. Minimal dishes for cooking, so we ate out. Overall the place was ok. Wouldn’t rent again because of the sleeping situation.

This is the second time we have stayed at Mike's Place. We love the location and the management company is very responsive. We had hoped that the beds would have been updated to something more comfortable. The mattress in the master bedroom definitely should be replaced. But overall the place is comfy and pretty much has everything you need to enjoy your stay!

Fun at the Beach!
The property was just steps from the ocean. It worked wonderfully for a small family group like ours. Close to food, fun and shopping. We were able to be close to our other family staying at the beach too. It's a clean, cozy place. The only drawback would be the beds seemed older and ready to be replaced as they were not very comfortable. If the property had comfortable beds it would be perfect!! But we still enjoyed our stay and it worked very well for us. We would recommend it to others.
