Relaxing Stay

We were in the area for our granddaughter's 2nd birthday. The poolside retreat was perfect for our stay. Great location, in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood. We will definitely be back!

This is an EXCELLENT little property for families with young children! There are many shared amenities that are prefect for the kiddos and the pool is fully fenced. There is a unit above this one that can be quite noisy as the walls seem fairly thin, and we had a few issues with the wifi going in and out, but other than that would definitely recommend and will stay again!

Retro Poolside 1 Bedroom

The accommodations were in good condition in a quiet neighborhood close to downtown La Mesa. We enjoyed the proximity to relatives that live in the area. You do have to walk from the living room through the bathroom to get to into the bedroom. Since the unit is titled as "Retro Poolside" it was unfortunate the pool was not heated thus making it somewhat unusable in the late fall. If the pool is mentioned in the listing I think it should also indicate the pool is unheated so those looking for a pool know the situation.

Clean, but loud and uncomfortable

Unit A is clean and well-appointed, but it’s on the first floor and you can hear everything that happens in the unit above, including every step taken, a crying baby, walking, running, partying, laughing and whatever else was going on. It was so loud we were woken up many times during the nights and first thing in the morning. The owner was responsive when we complained but there was nothing that could be done. Also the pullout couch is unusable so my sister slept on the couch - not comfitwble at all. Would not stay here again.
