Normal Heights. The great thing about San Diego is that it is a west coast city with REAL neighborhoods. (Ab) Normal Heights is a great mish mash of hipsters, immigrants, great bars and great restaurants, and the apartment is right in the heart of it all. Easy walking distance to bars like the Rabbit Hole, Triple Crown Pub, or Lestat’s 24hr cafe.
The apartment like the neighborhood is unpretentious, laid back, and cool without trying. Very Comfortable bed (more comfortable than my fancy mattress at home). The pictures are super accurate as is the description.
If you really forced me to say something negative- well Global Warming. There was a time when air-conditioners in San Diego were rare and hard and unnecessary, and while there is a portable air conditioner in the living room, but it would have been nice to have one in the bedroom. Now if you find yourself in San Diego any of the other 350 days that are temperate - you won’t notice.
Overall I was very happy.
