Apartment Complexes

Hello Carlsbad! Apologies in advance as there have been a lot of these posts recently. I’m moving to the area next month and am looking pretty seriously at Ascend 2300 and San Katrina, and wondering if anyone here has personal experience with either or thoughts to share.

For my budget I can get a 1/1 at San Katrina, and a 2/2 at Ascend. I’d prefer the walkability of San Katrina but the space for $$ at Ascend is really good, and the amenities are the same or better. The apartments are probably slightly more dated but it might be worth it for the space. Unfortunately it seems hard to come by in unit W/D at complexes in the Village (this along with private outdoor space of some sort are non-negotiable) so options are limited in my budget for a 1-2 bed.

Appreciate any thoughts! Also, if you know of a complex that meets these requirements that’s in the village and under 3k a month for a 1+, please shout!
