This place was exactly what me and my best friend needed for our trip! It looked just like the pictures. We both slept amazing all 3 nights, bed was super comfortable and the AC unit was great. One thing to note is that the bathroom curtain is quite small (as pictured, we just didn’t realize it didn’t stretch out further) and only really covers the toilet. Probably wouldn’t be a problem for couples, and we had extra beach towels so it was a pretty easy fix. Also, there were two shared bathrooms on our floor which was really helpful. It was super close (walking distance) to Balboa Park and Gaslamp Quarter, and a generally fast drive (12-15 min) to the beaches without traffic (about 30 minutes with traffic). Also worth mentioning that while I didn’t have any trouble finding super close parking, there were a decent amount of homeless people camped out on the street outside (pretty normal for a Downtown area in a city), but me and my friend are college-aged girls and were still safe/ unbothered by them. John was great with communication, and I would definitely recommend this place to people who want to sightsee/ go to the beaches and come back to the place to sleep ! :)
