We had a wonderful stay at Marcus' apartment. It is located in Hillcrest, a hip neighborhood with many locally owned businesses (restaurants, cafés, bars) and great thrift-stores within walking distance of the apartment. The apartment sits in a quiet side street and comes with a parking spot right in front of it. Amenities include everything you might need, even bike helmets and beach towels. Marcus is a great host and you should definitely ask him for recommendations. He has lots of wonderful tips for where to go and what to see!
