Pros: location with 3-4 bus lines within a mile from the apartment made transportation easy to greater San Diego area including beach, UTC, Old Town, Downtown; groceries/dining also less than 10 minute walk away. Konito's is tucked next to Von's and a great place for breakfast without the line like Kono's on Pacific Beach.
Comfortable bed
Excellent water pressure in shower
Quiet, residential neighborhood. Safe to walk at all hours of the day including after sunset.
Cons: place could be just a bit cleaner--I found rings from drinks left on the night stand and the door handle on the refrigerator has perhaps never been wiped down
Photos are a bit deceiving--they fail to show the rust stains in the bathroom sink and bathtub and the peeling paint on doors.
Almost tripped on the shoes left in the middle of the entry way
Amenities list includes a smoke detector which appeared to have been removed from the bedroom and I didn't see the safe, not that I needed it though.
Another review mentioned amenities might be too old, I think the better description would be "not well maintained".
Overall, it was a decent stay but I've stayed at other truly lovely Airbnbs for less. It wouldn't take much to make this place a hidden gem, it has potential.
