Sam's apartment is exactly as described and in the perfect location in the midst of the action in Little Italy with coffee and gelato cafes, great restaurants and Saturday morning farmer's market. It's also close enough to walk to USS Midway and short driving distance (5-10 minutes) to Balboa Park, the San Diego Zoo, and the Airport. We rented a car for the weekend to get around. so having parking in the building was a definite plus. Sam is the perfect host, quick to respond to questions by email/text and super helpful throughout our stay, checking in often by texts. Superb host, apartment, and location!
