Lina's place is great. She has a lot of pets which my boyfriend and I were absolutely fine with but if you're not a pet person I wouldn't stay here. If you do, make note to bring a lint roller. Other than that, the pets are really friendly and Lina is amazing. Gave us quite a bit of advice about what to do and where to go in San Diego. Her place is right on the out skirts of downtown and in the heart of Little Italy. So much to do near her place and all around. My only gripe is parking. It was nearly impossible to find parking. At some point, we drove around for over 40 minutes looking for a spot. If you are driving into San Diego, you should factor in the parking. It was pretty brutal at times.
