The apartment had everything we needed; the bed was so comfortable! We went when it was a little warmer than usual, but the air conditioning unit worked very well. It's within walking distance of popular bars and restaurants with an active night life and very close to the zoo and Balboa Park. Although we did not get to meet James, he was very accommodating and was always quick to respond with any questions we had. If we visit San Diego again, we will definitely be back.
