Stayed at Mikes place the week of Fourth of July
Pros: excellent location. Little Italy is a charming and wonderful area to explore. Easy walk to the harbor and the farmers market In Little Italy on Saturday was amazing.
Mike responded to queries in a timely manner.
Parking space at the apartment was invaluable.
Cons: our flight was canceled the night we were supposed to fly out because of "COVID employee issues". While Mike's cancellation policy clearly states no refunds would be given at a late date, this is the first time since the pandemic where a host did not try to meet us half way.
This apartment is in the bottom of the complex , On the Friday -Sunday nights we were there the apartment above us played extremely loud music at all hours of the day and night. So loud the walks shook. After a while it was driving us crazy even during the day. Needless to say we did not get a very restful sleep. We asked mike if he knew the neighbors to see if he could help. He was apologetic but didn't know the neighbors and have a way to help. I believe he asked around the complex but no one else besides us was affected. He suggested we call the police but who wants to deal with that on vacation? Maybe we should have.
Overall. I would highly recommend little Italy as a homebase for a stay in San Diego.
