Efrain's place is located in a beautiful, quiet residential neighborhood, and you can walk everywhere. Balboa Park and the San Diego Zoo are very close, and there are many restaurants and fun things to do (like the Sunday Hillcrest Farmer's Market) within a mile. We had a very easy checkin, and Efrain was extremely responsive when we had a couple of questions. The beds are comfortable, the shower pressure is GREAT, and the place was roomy and spotlessly clean. Highly recommended.
