The Dutra is in the center of San Diego's everything, the loft is beautiful and Carolina is both considerate and responsive. We arrived late a few days due to a blizzard interruption, and the place is worth a payoff for the delays.
Succulents grow on every floor, cactus bonsai are beautiful too. The stairs are made of old dock wood maybe. The structure was a late 90s loft I heard.
The place is also close to a lot of local districts, fine restaurants, that I can't think of anything I should complain about, plus the host being kind and considerate!
