Fantastic location in the heart of Little Italy and close to Balboa Park, Hillcrest, and many other spots. This was a perfect home base for our family vacation - very clean, plenty of room to spread out and the kitchen was well stocked with what we needed. As others have noted, the planes coming in was not a nuisance and was actually darn cool. Loved sitting on the balcony and hanging out watching them land. They wrap up at a reasonable hour so sleep wasn’t an issue. If you are looking for a great central spot close to the action - this is the place!
