This is a nice property in a nice area. Check in/out was very convenient. It was very clean and well equipped for a weeks long stay.
There are three restaurants (breakfast, tacos, pizza) and two small markets within short walking distance. About a mile away and walkable with a few gentle hills is Ocean Beach, full of restaurants and shops. There are scooters to ride if you tire. It is central to downtown, Old Town, Sea World and most activities in SD.
Four stars were given to this property because of a lack of privacy we were seeking. The back deck is not private. While it is fenced off with small dog-type fencing, the back yard is a shared space with three other tenants who pass by with regularity. The window coverings inside the home were either non-existent or had a slat missing, which made difficult the ability to walk around indoors without exposure to the shared space.
The mattress was very firm.
