This place is a great value, and in a really convenient location on a quiet street. We originally didn't plan to spend a lot of time in the Hillcrest neighborhood, as we had excursions planned in La Jolla, Little Italy, and Balboa Park. But we ended up finding a great Italian restaurant located nearby and ended up eating there for dinner the first night instead! The room description is accurate, and the AC unit kept the room cool even during a hot weekend in San Diego. The only part that didn't quite meet our expectations was that the closet in the room adjacent to the bathroom had a bit of a smell to it, but as long as we kept the closet door shut it didn't really bother us.
