Incredible first Airbnb experience. Family trip with 2 girls, 20 and 15 yr old. I wanted to stay downtown and close to activities. Hotel prices were higher than our budget so looked into Airbnb. I relied heavenly on reviews since I have never used Airbnb. Price and reviews for Rachel's Place made the choice easy. Another deciding factor was a free parking spot. Bonus!
Location was great. Delicious restaurants, cafes and markets. The Saturday farmers market is a must, open 8am to 2pm. Weather was nice and we left the windows open all night. Noise was not a problem. Garbage truck came in the morning but wasn't bad. Music Box venue was less than 2 blocks away - hubby and daughter went to 2 concerts last minute. We walked to Padres game - a 30 minute walk but shopped along the way so took us a little longer.
The apartment was well stocked. We cooked 2 meals and had everything we needed. There was even umbrellas available but thankfully we didn't need them.
I highly recommend Rachel's Place.
