I come to San Diego two or three times a year for medical conferences and to visit with family. I have stayed at James' apartment whenever it has not been otherwise occupied. I LOVE it there. My favorite aspect of this little place is the balcony, which looks out over a very private little canyon. It is lovely to have dinner or relax with a glass of wine there, watching the birds and enjoying the breezes wafting up from the canyon. The apartment faces away from the street, so is quite private and quiet. It is on a charming street in the Hillcrest area of San Diego and is within walking distance of Balboa Park, the world famous San Diego Zoo, a myriad of wonderful museums, grocery stores, restaurants, and night life. A helpful addition is the laundry room, which is shared with the upstairs. The large walk-in closet/dressing room is another big plus. James is a considerate and accommodating host, and responds very quickly to any questions or needs.
