Quiet, just off Balboa Blvd with is a straight shot to Pacific Beach, Mission Beach & Ocean Beach, that was more than I expected. I was there for court, 4 miles of traffic but nothing heavy. Pamela provided everything, even items I had packed were there. My only regret is that I never got to meet her but she has a busy life; I never saw any members of her family because there was a private entrance. My vehicle was steps away, I felt safe and can't imagine going back to motels/hotels!
