The proximity to beach, bay, restaurants, and childrens playground at Mission Bay Park was great! You can open the windows at night and fall asleep to the sound of the waves. You can see the ocean from the patio. The garage could fit our Honda Pilot pretty snug but easy enough. The construction in the condos behind this unit is a little obnoxious if you try to nap but manageable in the mornings. The proximity to Belmont Park is great for tourists and meals. We stocked up at Ralph's and used the grill on the patio it was perfect for family meals. They had various games available and our 4yr old LOVED kicking our butts at Uno. The only con I have is that bar soap that was available in the bathrooms are the ones that feel sticky or rubbery after using it. Everything else was absolutely perfect for a family stay right on the beach.
