If you hate crowds and like privacy and peace and quiet, yet be near so much in a great location then this is the place. The only noise we heard at night was the ceiling fans above the beds. The full kitchen allows you the choice of eating in or dining out. Did I mention 2 bathrooms, this was awesome since I was traveling with my sister and my niece. You're a 5 minute walk to the zoo and Balboa Park and a 20-25 minute drive to the beaches in Coronado and Ocean Beach. Your host is very nice and attentive. Definitely better than staying at a hotel unless you really like throwing money away on expensive hotels and restaurants.
