I stayed in Tricia's apartment for 3.5 months, and it was a great experience. First, the location can't be beat; I could get anywhere I needed to go in under 10 minutes, and there are great restaurants within walking distance. The apartment is bright, airy, and feels so homey. It's really well decorated and well equipped. The bed and couch are both very comfortable, I actually loved sleeping on the couch when I had guests in town. It's also spacious for a one bedroom. Four of us stayed in the apartment for a couple of nights, and it didn't feel cramped or like we were on top of each other at all. The highlight of the apartment is definitely the deck. While it can be loud out there because it's next to the freeway, it gets great sun and you can watch the planes take off and land from the airport. The freeway is still a little noisy all night, so if you're sensitive to noise maybe bring some earplugs.

Tricia was a great host. She was always responsive if I had any questions, and she was friendly and welcoming. The first week I was there, the fridge was making a funny noise, and she replaced it as soon as possible. Just very considerate! I would highly recommend staying with Tricia if you're in San Diego.
