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! ##### Raena Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Mike M. 7 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 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. ##### Mike M.

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. ##### Mischa B. Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ---
