It is small but very comfortable. It was between the two busiest areas in Mission Beach so almost no after hours noise. No more than a mile in either direction to the popular areas of MB. There is a bus stop 1 block down that goes to the trolley station in Old Town which will get you into downtown SD (Lookup PRONTO pass). Several cafes, bakery, liquor store/market (for essentials) within 2 blocks of the unit. The bikes provided are definitely a plus as parking can be tough around Belmont Park and the beach. The garage is small as she noted. I had a cross over about the size of a Ford Explorer and it BARELY fit. Over all nice little place in a good spot.
