Location! Location! Location!
Within a few blocks in any direction of fantastic sites and restaurants- go up a few blocks you are in the heart of little Italy, straight shot to the bay to take ferry to Coronado, great brewery on the bay with excellent views. There is a gym on the next block - important for those who like to work out even while on vacation- not a bad deal for a 7day pass.
I know that many have commented on noise. Maybe they haven’t stayed in big cities? It really did not bother us but we are early risers and late nighters so it did not bother us. Sure there is construction and you are on a busy street but not anything different than places we’ve stayed in the East coast. The earplugs are right by the bed if you need.
The place itself was clean. Does not have full kitchen but does have Nespresso (w pods- VERY appreciate on some mornings), tea kettle & tea. Places/utensils if you order from one of the great restaurants around you. Mini fridge w freezer, no microwave. Air con came in handy because it does tend to get stuffy/ humid in the appt even in the 50s outside.
One comment about the furniture- it is on the shorter size. We are of average high and found chairs, center table, and bed pretty low so can be difficult for some to get in and out of. It’s stylish - IKEAish like. There is very little storage/small open hanging/closet w hair dryer, iron, small ironing board etc.
We stayed 6 nights and it was perfect for 2.
Would we come back and stay here?
Verdict: ABSOLUTELY!!! Easy access using app. We never contacted host during our stay since we didn’t need to but responded quickly and answered some of our questions before our stay and even extended our stay before we arrived when we asked.
