The location of this place is great, only a few minute drive from the beach and a few blocks from the Gaslamp district. There is construction about 3 feet from the window, but it doesn't start until 7am, so it wasn't that big of a nuisance. We weren't spending a ton of time in the room, but if you're looking for a quiet place to hang out, wait until the building next door is completed. There were a couple communication hiccups, like the fact that we didn't know the water would be turned off for a few hours one day. But otherwise Patricia the host was helpful and friendly.
