Great location in downtown San Diego. Close enough to walk many places but far enough from the central late night downtown area that it was still a quiet neighborhood for relaxing and sleeping. Host gave us a lot of information for the stay. More than enough room for 3 guys enjoying and exploring the city.

Jennifer You are a gem! 💎 Jennifer experienced some challenges that other guests haven't. She could have easily let anyone of these issues effect her stay or provide us with a negative review, yet she didn't. 👍There was an inconvenience because one of our pedestrian gate locks was stuck, the maids didn't put a base sheet on a bed and we were out of toilet paper and paper towels and the staff didn't replace them. Jennifer informed me of these issues, but didn't let them effect her stay. Any host would be lucky 🍀 to have Jennifer rent their unit. Trust me guests like Jennifer are one in a million! Jennifer i give you 6 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of a possible 5! I'm seriously grateful for her stay and if her approach to how she handled the challenges with her stay is any indication of how she handles life.... Jennifer is going to have a very joyous and remarkable existence. Bravo Jennifer! You have my sincere gratitude.
