Steve was really helpful in communication before we arrived sending pictures of what to look for and he was really flexible with our arrival time as we were dealing with delayed flights. When the TV broke during our second night, it was replaced within a few hours with a new one! The apartment really lets you feel like a local in a trendy and highly desireable area. While you can't park at the apartment, we found that we could always find a spot on Pacific Beach Dr. (one major street to the North) leaving us with a few block walk, but no wasted time looping around looking for closer parking. The bedroom and bathroom are a bit tight but you stay here for the deck with the ocean view and the 1 block walk to the sand! Overall, a very reliable host!
