Definitely one of the best Airbnb’s we have ever stayed in! Beautifully decorated, comfortable, and so many useful touches, including a very functional kitchen, and interesting local books. We loved the daylight pouring in with windows on all four sides of the unit. It is above an alleyway, but the noise did not bother us - although we were there in winter and did not have the windows wide open. The short walk to Pacific Beach was delightful, as were all of the nearby cafes and restaurants. You will hear the sound of the garage doors below opening and closing, but not directly in the bedrooms. Summer was a kind and responsive host.
