You cannot beat this location. Literally, you are steps to the beach. My family rented a car so we had easy access to explore all San Diego had to offer. The fact this unit has a garage is priceless in mission beach as street parking can sometimes be a challenge. There are also so many attractions within a short drive (Zoo, Sea World, La Jolla, and Coronado Island to name a few). The unit was clean, well maintained, and air-conditioned! The host was a great communicator as well. A+ all around
