Simon’s place is wonderful. Clean and nicely furnished and appointed. Great location and having never been to the area, discovered how important it is to have a parking spot assigned with the unit. Great location. Quick walk to the beach, market, pizza, coffee, tacos, breakfast, etc. We didn’t eat in except for snacks, but everything is provided if you want cook your own meals. Also a great location to easily get to downtown San Diego, attractions such as the SD Zoo, Midway Museum or a drive up the coast to Pacific Beach, La Jolla, Carlsbad, etc. Beach towels and chairs, umbrella and a small cooler made for an easy beach day. Close enough to the beach to carry it all or throw in the trunk to head up the coast. Simon is friendly and very responsive. Everything is as represented in the listing. No hidden surprises or old pictures that make things look better than they really are. It is as nice as it looks! We wouldn’t hesitate to stay again or recommend to others. Very nice introduction to California for me!
