Brandon made my experience above and beyond, I would highly recommend this place. Clean, friendly, fun! The bedding was wonderful, beds comfortable, bathrooms had everything you could need and catered to women. Kitchen was perfect, filtered water. I had zero issues or complaints. Very centrally located. Will be back!

The customer service and hospitality here is AMAZING. The location is pretty conveniently located near public transit and it’s surrounded by good food and cafes. Brandon gave me a list of recommendations to do nearby and the hosts were very accommodating when I had to store and take out my luggage during the times I wasn’t checked in. I stayed here for the SD marathon and although it was a bit pricey for me (I booked a double for myself because that was the only thing available), the location is worth it and the shared common areas were never too busy so I always had my space :-)

Gladly surprised by the quality of the service. Very clean -daily mopping and cleaning of all areas. Staff super friendly. Common areas are usually very quiet and was nice to hang out there. Very close to downtown (5-10 mins cab ride) conveniently close to the airport. Will stay here next time.
