This was our first Airbnb experience so we can only compare to hotels. This location was good for up tp 2 people with a stay of a night or two. Location was very central to important local sights such as Balboa Park, Gaslamp, Little Italy, Airport etc. I would imagine it would be affordable to use Uber to go downtown. Walking distance to coffee shops and other restaurants. Parking was not a problem and it was a short distance to haul luggage, etc. Place was clean and large refrigerator was appreciated. Large TV with Netflix, etc. Bed was comfortable. USB ports available for charging. The only negative was that we arrived about 4pm on a fairly hot day and room was stuffy. It took a little while for the AC unit to cool off the place.
