Nancy's place is a charming in-law flat in the first floor of their home. The apartment has all the basics you'll need for a short stay, and while we didn't use the kitchen, I did notice it was stocked up with everything to whip up a simple meal. The place is walking distance from two charming neighborhoods, and a short drive from others. These are the real San Diego neighborhoods -- not the Seaport Village/ Old Town San Diego tourist areas, so they're filled with locals and with really good food. Make sure you grab a California burrito at Humberto's, a few block away. It's open 24 hours.
