Tricia's place is in a great location -- it's a short walk to restaurants, bars, and the trolley station. The ride to the Gaslamp/Downtown area is short, too. The space was perfect for me and my spouse. The water pressure in the shower was awesome. The rooftop patio offers amazing views and is a wonderful place to have a cup of coffee or a drink. If you struggle with stairs, this might not be the space for you. The driveway is very steep, and there are a significant amount of stairs going up to the apartment. As indicated in the listing and by some other reviewers, there is also a lot of white noise from the highway and the airport, but if you've spent any time in a city it won't be unfamiliar.
Tricia was incredibly thorough in her suggestions for local dining and activities -- we didn't have enough time to try all of her suggestions, so I guess we will have to return soon!
