A perfect, fully equipped place to stay for a couple. There's no central A/C (typical for San Diego), but if you open the window and the balcony door, the cross breeze keeps the place perfectly cool. (A portable air conditioner is available, but we were comfortable without it.) There is some noise from airplanes during the day, but it rarely bothered us. The beach is across the street. The neighborhood is very walkable and has many dining options. Mission Beach, downtown, Balboa Park and other attractions are a short drive away. Steffanie is a great host. She told us everything we needed to know in a timely manner. Check-in was very easy.
