Janet was was a great host, she not only provided the basics she also sent over a list of attractions and advice on food shopping which was really useful. The apartment is as described and is right on the beach. We found the area quiet at night. The apartment is warm but the sea breeze kept it cool at night with the windows open. We hired a full size SUV (Toyota 4Runner) and I was able to park it in the bay with the mirrors folded in. Having a parking spot was useful as the main road wasn't that easy to find a space on. The kitchen is well equipped including a Keurig.

It really is an great location, it's so close to so many places - usually about a 15-20 minute drive. It made exploring San Diego very easy. The beach in front of the apartment is very relaxed and the boardwalk has a local feel to it. The Pacific beach side was fantastic with big surf and a much wider beach. We took plenty of walks on both.

Would definitely recommend it.
