Nicole was an excellent host. She went the extra mile before we got there to make sure the apartment would suit our needs, checked that we got there safely, and throughout was very responsive and quick to help.
The place was super clean and beautifully decorated. The kitchen had pretty much everything we needed to cook during our long stay, including a fantastic knife set with sharpener! We particularly enjoyed the doors that open up to the street for a balcony-like feel with a nice view up and down the street.
Having parking under the building was also a treasured luxury as parking on street seemed like it would be difficult/unsafe/expensive.
If your goal is to be in the Gaslamp area/convention center/balboa park for the zoo, this place is perfect!
