Pictures are not deceiving, this place is really cute. The location is great as well, only a few blocks from balboa park and a quick scooter ride to the Gaslamp, the east village, bay and little Italy. We didn’t drive anywhere, only scootered around and it was perfect. It is listed that this place is in the flight path, and that it is, but honestly with the windows closed it’s not that bad. The planes pass so quickly and they provided ear plugs as well. We were not in the place enough for that to bother us. What is unfortunate is that there is literally zero insulation in the entire building. The whole thing is 3 separate airbnb’s, one being upstairs. There is no insulation in the walls or the ceiling. The first night we checked in the people above us were SO loud. Part of it is uncontrollable because of the lack of insulation, but they were also just loud. The people who checked in the next day were not quite as loud, but one person was wearing heels and the noise is so magnified because there is nothing to buffer. Just a heads up - If you’re sensitive to noise, this may not be the place for you. We’d stay here again but would probably rent the 2nd floor unit.
