About the Place This text was written initially in English.
Stay right where the community is. This bright, fully-furnished 1-bedroom sits in the heart of Hillcrest — steps from the neighborhood's best cafés, bars, and restaurants, and the center of San Diego's LGBTQ+ life.
It's a real home for a longer stay: memory-foam queen sofa bed (sleeps 4), a restful Tempur-Pedic bedroom, a full kitchen, in-unit washer & dryer, a dedicated workspace with fast Wi-Fi, and a private balcony. Building perks: resort-style pool, hot tub, 24-hour gym, elevator, and secured garage parking with an EV charger (plus a guest parking pass) — all in one flat, all-inclusive monthly rate; electricity is included up to a $150/month allowance. Walkable to everything (97 Walk Score); a 12-min walk to Scripps Mercy if you're here on a contract.
Hosted by locals who welcome you exactly as you are. We're Katrina and Gerardine — responsive, thoughtful hosts (a nurse and a remote-work pro) who built a space we'd want to come home to. We greet you in person at check-in for a smooth arrival and orientation, with easy self check-out, flexible start dates, and quick replies the whole stay.
"Spotless, matched the description, and felt like home." — recent guest
Best for a professional or couple on a monthly stay (31-night minimum); not set up for groups or events. All-inclusive · smoke-free · service animals welcome.
