We had a good stay at John’s place! The place is basically a room and a bathroom. It has a microwave and fridge just no kitchen. The cleanliness is pretty good. The building is a bit old though. There is quite a bit of homeless population in the area but it seems like it cannot be avoided if you are booking a place in downtown SD. We parked at the lot right next to the air bnb. It charges 12$/12hour and is really convenient. The best deal you can get in the area. Even though in retrospect I might have preferred a hotel room, this is the best deal we could’ve get in the area because we kinda booked late. We are happy with the stay. No issues at all. John is very accessible and welcoming. We like walking so we walked everywhere and its pretty convenient. Hope this is helpful for other travelers.
