This was my first experience using Airbnb and it was awesome! Normal check-in time for this room is 3pm but Mark changed around his schedule to be there so we could drop our bags off as soon as we got in that morning. This exemplifies the hospitality we saw throughout our stay.
The room itself was great, not huge but as expected based on the pictures in the profile. Plenty of room for two people. The patio / fire-pit area is a cool bonus as well! A nice place to unwind after a long day of site-seeing, especially when you add in some quality beer from one of the many local breweries within walking distance.
That leads to by next point, the North Park area itself is phenomenal. We didn't get a rental car but that was never an issue since there were so many great places to eat and drink within a 10 minute walk of the house. This includes Balboa Park and the San Diego Zoo! Also, with the exception of La Jolla, every other area we visited was a < $10 cab ride away.
I would recommend North Park, and this listing in particular, to anyone traveling to San Diego. Thanks for adding to our great San Diego experience Mark & Chad!
