Rigel's place is a true gem in San Diego. The location is truly unbeatable- you are steps from the bay and a quick walk to great bars, food, and other shops. The street the place is on is quite busy, as others have noted, but the neighborhood itself is perfect. It is very quiet and residential. This unit is set back enough from the street that noise was never an issue. I stayed here for a month and Rigel made sure the place was stocked with shampoo, soap, beverages, etc. It felt like home! Rigel is the best communicator and was incredibly helpful. When my brother stayed with me, Rigel brought over an air mattress for him to use. I truly cannot say enough good things about the place, the host, or my stay. Definitely recommend this for anyone coming to San Diego!
