Mark's place is extremely conveniently located: 4 minutes from the airport car rental center; 10 minutes to Balboa Park; a very short walk to Old Town. The place was spotless. The linens were very good. The bed was comfortable. It was quiet. The lighting in the bathroom was excellent. The place is very utilitarian and minimalist--no charm. It's great for a place to crash while visiting sites, but it's not a place you'll want to hang out in. For our purposes it worked out perfectly.
