I didn't get a chance to meet Michael, but Heather was lovely, offering recommendations and tips about places to visit and restaurants to eat at. The Airbnb itself is located next to little Italy and a short walk to the park. I used uber to get around which is well priced in San Diego. My room had a kitchen and bathroom both of which were clean. The room itself is situated outside the main house in the garden on the lower level. As I was in town for a confrence I appreciated both having space for myself and the ability to interact with others when I had time. The walk to the convention centre is about 40 minutes. You can hear the airplanes overhead but I wasn't bothered by it at all.I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
