Amir's place is an ideal spot for those looking to explore the Hillcrest, North Park, and Balboa Park areas. The bars and restaurants of Hillcrest are footsteps away, including grocery shopping for your meals and snacks at home. The unit has just what you need for a comfortable stay and although I didn't have a chance to use the patio, it looks like an incredible spot to sit out in the sun on a hot San Diego day. Amir was responsive to my request for a last-minute stay when I decided to spend a little more time in San Diego before heading back home. I recommend Amir's place for those looking for a simple stay and who plan on being outside most of your time.
