Jo’s apartment is a great place to stay in the heart of Gaslamp. The apartment is very clean, and has everything needed for a comfortable stay. The place is right above a restaurant bar area with LOTS of options. Despite this, the apartment is super quiet at night (bldg curfew 10pm-8am). We enjoyed a different breakfast place every morning, each great in their own way (Fig Tree, Breakfast Republic, Cafe 21).
The most important quality is the central location. ~$10 uber to attractions like the Zoo, Balboa Park and Little Italy. ~$15-20 ride to Coronado beach and Ocean beach. 100s of world class restaurants near by. Based on this location we opted not to rent a car, which was the best decision we could have made. Parking everywhere is very complicated. This apartment location allowed us to affordably uber all weekend.
While it is not extra fancy, the apartment is very well kept/clean, roomy, and equipped with a full kitchen (4burner range, small fridge, plates, utensils etc.), which is notable. Above all it was fairly priced compared to the exorbitantly priced surrounding hotels.
I would recommend this AirBnB to any one who wants to have a true San Diego experience.
