We stayed at Eric's place for a week during our trip to SD! The location is absolutely amazing, we could get to all the spots we wanted to see within 20 mins. You can also walk to the south part of Balboa Park as well. Parking wasn't bad at all since there are ample street parking. We only had to park 2 blocks away once, and were able to find parking right outside on the same street.
The place itself is cute and definitely was what we expected. We were able to cook during our trips without a problem as well. The view at night is nice and the neighborhood itself is quiet, perfect for a peaceful night after going around the city.
Eric responded to us quickly during the first night when we had problem opening the lockbox. The problem was resolved swiftly and we were inside in no time :)
Thanks for hosting us in SD, it was a great trip!
