Great location overall, we walked over to Liberty Station for dinner the first night (you just cross the street to enter the area). The neighborhood is nice and chill. The place is a quick drive into the Gaslamp area and Little Italy for multiple lunch/dessert/dinner/cafe options. This place is also conveniently located in-between La Jolla/Del Mar and Downtown if you are going to go explore multiple areas while in SD. The check-in/out process was very easy and simple. This whole neighborhood is by the flight path of the airport, so take that into consideration if you are a very light sleeper. Overall it didn't bother us since the planes stop flying by midnight and we kept the windows closed
