The location is really great - little Italy is a close walk, and other attractions like the zoo, Balboa Park, and the Gaslamp district are no more than 1.5 miles away. As others have mentioned, the airplanes really do fly close overhead, but I found it stopped no later than midnight. The treehouse room is a bit cramped and would benefit from a few hooks for hanging clothes. Our stay took place during an unusual cold snap and the space heater in our room was adequate. In general, I think the ultimate enjoyment of this space would be in the glorious months of summer when you can really enjoy the beautiful outdoor gardens, balcony and patio. This is a lovingly restored older home and it was nice to have use of the common areas.
