We rented Lisa's place for our extended weekend vacation in San Diego. It's a great location to all the local and popular spots of San Diego, including the beaches and Sea World. It is short walking distance to Thorn Brewing and a local coffee shop. And if you're adventurous enough it's even "close enough" to walk to the North Park area. Otherwise I think our Uber & Lyft rides were never no more than $15 to anywhere we went. The place itself is very comfy and private being in their downstairs basement. If you're a very light sleeper you might hear them walking around upstairs, but I wouldn't say it wakes you up by all means, and they also mention in their notes that they are upstairs and to be aware of it. Also, if you're a tall person, the shower might be a little short but the joys of being a tall person and something we're used of :) I WILL hands down be booking Lisa's place when we come to visit again. We felt very safe, safe neighborhood to walk around, truly have no complaints and HIGHLY recommend.
