This was the first time that we have rented via AirBNB and we were very pleased with the stay. Susan was very responsive to messages. The place is exactly like the photos. Its location was easy to find and located near many restaurants and shops. The boardwalk and beach are only a block away and everything is convenient to walk to, including a grocery store. The garage accommodated our rental mini van (although the spots are a tight fit). We stayed Wednesday - Saturday. There was some street noise in the early evening Friday and Saturday for a couple hours, but nothing that lasted into the late night. We traveled often to the USMC Depot and airport which were easy 15 minute drives. We did have a couple with us that Ubered to the airport and it cost them $25 one way. If your traveling to San Diego and want to rent close to the beach without going too far from places like the airport, USMC Depot, Sea World, San Diego Zoo, etc. then this is the place to choose.
