Stateside (San Diego) review 2026: prices, room types & what residents say

Updated:

Overview

Stateside is a student housing property located at San Diego, CA 92115, USA. It offers shared apartment layouts (2‑bedroom, 3‑bedroom, 4‑bedroom) with a monthly rent range of $800–$2,055 (indicative — confirm with the operator). A deposit of $300 is required. The property is available from 18 August 2026.

The building provides in‑unit amenities such as TV, laundry facility, air conditioning, and a study area. On Google, Stateside holds a rating of 3.9 out of 5 based on 18 reviews. The city of San Diego currently has 5 student‑housing listings on this platform, with the lowest monthly price starting at $800 — which matches Stateside’s minimum rate.


Who this residence suits

Stateside is a practical choice for students who want a newer building within walking distance of campus. The property’s proximity to San Diego State University (the campus area) is cited by residents as a key advantage. The air conditioning and in‑unit laundry are particularly useful in San Diego’s climate, and the dedicated study area supports focused work.

The room‑type mix (2‑bedroom, 3‑bedroom, 4‑bedroom) means the property can accommodate both small and larger groups. If you are looking to share with friends or find roommates through the operator, the multi‑bedroom layouts offer flexibility. The minimum price of $800 per month places Stateside at the entry‑level end of the San Diego market, so it may suit students on a tighter budget — provided they are comfortable with a shared room or the smallest interior‑facing unit.

Residents who prioritise safety will find the area reassuring. One Google reviewer, Valentina Villarraga, gave a 5‑star rating and said: “So excited to live here in the Fall, at my tour I felt that the area was so safe and it has very nice amenities!! Choose stateside! ☺️☺️☺️.” This suggests that the immediate surroundings and the property’s facilities create a positive first impression.


Who this residence may not suit

Stateside

Stateside is less suitable for students who require natural light in their bedroom. A 2‑star review from Daniel Campos notes: “Some rooms face the inside of the building and you’ll never see the light of day, and they’ll have you pay the same as a larger room with an outdoor facing window. I got the small inner‑facing room.” If a bright, sunlit living space is important to you, make sure to confirm the room’s orientation before signing.

Management responsiveness has been a point of concern. A 1‑star review from Al Stoller states: “Definitely a newer place and close to campus, but experience with management has been horrible, especially with the change in management companies last fall. In our experience they have been very dishonest, they don’t follow through on requests, or even on what they say they will do, the lease documents are conflicting.” While this review is from a previous management period, the current management’s track record is not separately verified. Students who expect prompt and transparent service may want to ask current tenants or the operator for updated feedback.

Another drawback: the lounge is reported to be locked frequently. Daniel Campos also wrote: “The lounge is locked a lot of the time when it shouldn’t be.” If you rely on common areas for socialising or studying, the unreliability of lounge access could be frustrating.

The property has a limited number of reviews (18) on Google, so long‑term patterns are harder to gauge. If you prefer a residence with a large and well‑established reputation, you might want to consider other options in San Diego.


What residents actually say

Three Google reviews are available. They are quoted verbatim below.

Valentina Villarraga (5 stars):
“So excited to live here in the Fall, at my tour I felt that the area was so safe and it has very nice amenities!! Choose stateside! ☺️☺️☺️”

Daniel Campos (2 stars):
“Some rooms face the inside of the building and you’ll never see the light of day, and they’ll have you pay the same as a larger room with an outdoor facing window. I got the small inner‑facing room. The lounge is locked a lot of the time when it shouldn’t be. The rooms and kitchen are very nice, and the staff are frien”

Al Stoller (1 star):
“Definitely a newer place and close to campus, but experience with management has been horrible, especially with the change in management companies last fall. In our experience they have been very dishonest, they don’t follow through on requests, or even on what they say they will do, the lease documents are conflicting”

The reviews highlight a split: the building’s physical condition is praised (newer, nice rooms and kitchen, good amenities), but management issues and room layout quirks diminish satisfaction for some residents. Natural light and lounge access are sticking points.


Price positioning and room‑type guidance

Stateside’s monthly rent range of $800–$2,055 (indicative — confirm with the operator) covers a wide spread. The $800 minimum is the lowest price currently available among the 5 student‑housing options in San Diego on this platform. The maximum of $2,055 likely corresponds to a larger private room in a 2‑bedroom unit.

Because the operator charges the same rate for interior rooms as for exterior rooms, you may end up paying the same for a less desirable unit. Important: when you view lease options, ask the operator whether the price is fixed per unit or varies by room. If you are price‑sensitive, a larger group unit (e.g. 4‑bedroom) could bring your share down to around $800–$1,000 per month, but confirm the total unit rent and split.

The deposit is $300 — relatively low compared to many U.S. properties. However, the refund policy is not detailed in the provided data; check the lease terms.


Booking timing

Availability begins 18 August 2026. For a Fall 2026 start, you have several months to secure a room. However, San Diego’s student‑housing market can tighten as the academic year approaches. Given that Stateside is one of only 5 listings on this platform in the city, the most affordable rooms (the $800 tier) may fill first.

If you are considering Stateside, start the application process at least 2–3 months before your move‑in date. Contact the operator directly to confirm which unit types are still open, and ask for a floor plan that identifies interior‑ vs. exterior‑facing rooms. Also request current information about management response times and lounge access schedules, as the reviews indicate these are volatile.


Frequently Asked Questions

H3: Can I choose my room to avoid an interior‑facing window?

Yes, but you must explicitly request a room with an outdoor‑facing window during the booking process. Some unit layouts are interior‑facing by design; not all rooms are identical. The operator may charge the same rate for both interior and exterior rooms, so ask for a floor plan and confirm the orientation before signing. If you are sharing with roommates, coordinate to ensure everyone’s preference is noted.

H3: What is included in the rent? Are utilities separate?

The provided data does not specify whether utilities are included. You should ask the operator whether electricity, water, internet, and trash are covered in the monthly rent or billed separately. The amenities listed (TV, laundry, AC, study area) are in‑unit or building‑wide facilities; ongoing costs are not indicated. Always request a full breakdown of expected monthly charges.

H3: Is the property close to campus?

Stateside is described as “close to campus” in the review by Al Stoller. The address is San Diego, CA 92115, which is near San Diego State University. Exact walking distance in minutes is not given in the data; use a map tool to measure. The property’s proximity is a commonly cited advantage, but confirm the specific campus entrance you need.
