This place is ideally located right next to Little Italy and about a 15 minute walk to Balboa Park. Free street parking is available in the area, and while you may need to hunt a bit, you usually find a descent spot nearby.
If you’re sensitive to noises, be aware that the house is in a flight path and sits beside the highway. However, that didn’t bother us much. We simply bought a fan at the local target and ran it in the bedroom at night to generate some white noise.
The house isn’t flashy, but it works and has all the right amenities. 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a full kitchen, living room, etc.
