This apartment is in a great location and feels safe and quiet (at night) . An 8 minute-ish Uber ride (roughly $15) from the airport. This location is also close to the San Diego Zoo, USS Midway Museum, and Little Italy; walking distance. Uber rides are also convenient to Coronado Island and La Jolla (roughly 12 miles, 17 minutes, and $20, one way). I would strongly encourage you to book a San Diego Whale Watching Cruise...dress warm & wear layers. It is cold & windy, but worth the experience.
The apartment was nice. You can definitely hear the planes flying over, but you get used to it. There were plenty of towels. My only recommendation would be to remove the glass bookshelf with plates, located in the living room, and replace it with a TV and DVD Player and/or Roku. And replace most of the lightbulbs, which were burnt out. Also, I would encourage the housekeepers to use odorless cleaners.
