What you see is what you get - and what you get is great!
Nathan's place was a cozy spot that was well-located and very well decorated. My sisters and I stayed here on a first-time visit to SD, and we were impressed with the space. The bedrooms had plenty of blankets and pillows, the kitchen had a Keurig and k-cups in stock (lifesaver), and the electronic lock made it easy to get in and out of the house without worrying about keys.
SD is pretty sprawling and we were hoping to cover a lot of ground on our visit, so we used the house as our "home base" to drive out to other parts of the city. The location of the apartment was off of a main road nearby the interstate, but traffic noise was not an issue. Since we were driving everywhere, being close to the highway was a positive for us - though we did drive a short 8 minutes away into PB to get coffee/breakfast one morning. There is not much nearby the house, so it you don't drive (or don't want to drive) during your visit, you may want to go a bit closer to the beach itself. But if you are looking to hop on the road and want to visit several different neighborhoods and parts of SD - I'd recommend staying here.
Nathan and his friend Adam were easy to reach with any questions and overall were quite accommodating and helpful. Overall - we liked Nathan's place a lot and would be happy to stay here again.
