Had a nice time staying here. The loft was super cute and it was really nice being right next to the kitchen, where we could fill up our water bottles with the water cooler. The loft and building felt a little older, but still quite clean, and the host was super friendly and easy to communicate with. It was also super awesome being SO close to the heart of the Gaslamp quarter- we could easily walk there for food or drinks.
The one thing to be aware of is that there was usually a homeless person or two sleeping/sitting in the alcove next to the building entrance when we were coming and going, and a few other homeless people in the immediate area. I didn’t feel unsafe at all and no one bothered us, but if that makes you uncomfortable, it might be worth looking for another area farther out of the downtown area, as there was a relatively high homeless population in this area/the downtown from what I could tell.
