New York Style Penthouse in the Heart of the City

Summary:
This gorgeous, three-story home perfectly captures the essence of lively The Gaslamp Quarter. The main living area boasts 20-foot ceilings with exposed concrete walls and industrial finishes, making space feel like a New York City penthouse in the middle of San Diego's historic Gaslamp Quarter. Though it's in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the city the fireplace and cozy furnishings make it feel like a home away from home.

The Space:
Our townhome has three spacious floors of living space and a private garage. Great for friends or families sharing a vacation. The separation provided by the separate floors gives an added level of privacy and coziness when its time to wind down.

Guest Access:
We are utilizing a noise monitoring software in this property called NoiseAware. While NoiseAware is not a recording device, it does monitor noise levels to ensure they remain at a level that is respectful to our neighbors and to alert us of fire alarms while guests are not present at the property.

The Neighborhood:
This home is located in the heart of San Diego's East Village, a hidden gem of San Diego. Located a few blocks from Petco Park, this home is conveniently located to everything San Diego has to offer, from first class dining, to the hottest nightclubs in the city, as well as the numerous museums and gardens in Balboa park. This spectacular home is in the heart of it all.

Getting Around:
The home is a few blocks from all major freeway on-ramps leading in and out of the city, and a two block stroll to the nearest public transportation (Park and Market station of the Metropolitan Transit System, which hosts the Blue, Orange, and Green Lines).

Other Things to Note:
As a member of the U.S. Armed Forces, I'd like to personally invite all Department of Defense Employees and other branches of the military to stay here.

We encourage you to have fun and enjoy the home, but there are very important noise policies that will be enforced for the entirety of your stay. If any of these are violated, you will be asked to leave the home immediately and will forfeit both the rental amount and damage deposit. Additionally, you will be liable for all damages and lost rental income resulting from damages.

Quiet hours are from 10PM until 9AM everyday. However, noise levels must be reasonable and courteous to the neighbors at all times. Please refrain from utilizing the outdoor spaces during quiet hours and keep the door from the kitchen to the patio closed to reduce noise. East Village, where the home is located, has strict local laws governing excessive noise. Violations can result in fines and termination of lease.

All neighbors have been given the host’s contact information and have been asked to call in the event of excessive noise. Additionally, there is noise monitoring software installed in the home to monitor the noise levels.

Lastly, the home has its own parking garage with space for one vehicle. If you require additional parking, we can recommend nearby parking garages.

Interaction with Guests:
You'll be able to come and go as you please using the smart door locks and remote control to the parking garage.

Business trip
My family and I are planning our next vacation and we've been looking into different options for accommodation. We stumbled upon VRBO, which stands for Vacation Rentals by Owner, and were immediately intrigued by the concept. For those who may not be familiar, VRBO is a website that connects travelers with homeowners who are renting out their properties as vacation rentals. This means that instead of staying in a traditional hotel or resort, you can choose to rent out someone's home or apartment for your stay. One of the main reasons why VRBO caught our attention is because it offers a unique and personalized experience for our vacation. Instead of being confined to a small hotel room, we have the option to stay in a spacious house or condo with all the amenities we could

Great stay in San Diego
Great spot for walking to Gaslamp District and close to everything. Kitchen was well stocked with everything for big family dinners. Street noise is loud - but we knew this advance and had ear plugs for the night. Could use a deep clean of couches, but otherwise just a few spots missed by the cleaning crew. Overall, we were very happy with our stay. Owner and rental company had great communication and check in and out were very easy, I would highly recommend and would stay here again.

Great location in Downtown near Petco
We booked this unit last minute for 2 Padres playoff games and it was perfect location. 5 adults shared the space comfortably. Property manager was very responsive to minor issues with dead batteries in remotes. House was well stoked and easy to come and go.

Cool, modern loft apartment
This property is pretty cool. Plenty of beds and space for our family of four. It has a modern vibe with really nice features like a lit patio, fireplace, bathrooms on all three levels, a loft space and cool light fixtures. The owner was very responsive and courteous. Ready for anything we needed and prompt to respond. A couple tips and info to be aware of: The property gets quite bright when the sun comes up. The loft area has two beds (all beds were very confortable) and way up high in the ceiling are small windows that let in a lot of natural light. I'd recommend eye covers for sleep. I brought some and the light was no problem. The apartment comes with an attached garage. It was very convenient to have. However, it is important to note that the garage is very small. Our suv (a Hyundai Palisade) just fit and it was very tricky to get in and out. If you have anything larger, you will need to park on the street or paid parking around the block. The neighborhood had pluses and minuses. If you want to be close to Petco park and the bars that surround it...this is perfect. You are a five minute walk to the ballpark. You head South and with my small kids I would say that was a safe walk and easy. However, all the directions that weren't dead South to Petco were not great for walking around. It was mostly homeless people camped in tents along the sidewalk and it was pretty sad to see and sometimes hard to maneuver around. So we walked South or we drove to landmarks. The apartment is a very short and easy drive to Coronado Island, USS Midway and the marina, and Balboa Park and the Zoo.

Overall the property worked for our group. Adam/Sean were great to communicate with throughout our stay. They were accommodating of our group and we enjoyed our trip. The property could use a little TLC - It is very obviously a rental that is turned frequently. The location is great for walking to restaurants, coffee shops, etc.; however the Salvation Army is a block and a half away so the homeless population near the property was very high. Overall we enjoyed our stay and appreciate the hospitality.

The property was amazing and looks just as amazing as it does in the pictures. Upon check in, everything was clean. The owner kept in constant communication whenever I had any questions and really was helpful. This place is in a good location in downtown so it is pretty close to many restaurants and such. All in all it was a great stay. Thank you !
