The Reveal
Near LGBTQ+ SceneCozyGreat for Fitness LoversInsta-WorthyRelaxingCentral location
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.

This was a really great spot for my few months in San Diego! The building is really well-located in Hillcrest, with easy access to nightlife, daylife, Balboa park, and other great spots. The unit is spacious, with all the small items I needed for a regular day-to-day life.
