Location! Wake up each morning to birdsong in the greenbelt out the windows, surrounded by hollyhock, nasturtium, and dozens of aloe and agave plants. It's a 10 min drive to Mission Bay, Little Italy, the USS Midway, Maritime Museum, and Seaport Village; 20 min walk to Balboa Park, and the San Diego Zoo; a 5 min walk to tons of Hillcrest restaurants (I recommend Daddy's Hot Dogs, Gossip Grill, and Baja Betty's). There's a microwave and mini-fridge in the place, so get groceries at the Ralph's in Hillcrest for a longer stay Seperate kitchenette and dining table. The two cockatoos at the base of the stairs are very friendly and love attention. Check-in was painless. Huge TV with plenty of channels. Bed was comfy, and the breeze through the canyon meant we never once closed up and used A/C. Dresser and closet w/ hangars lets you unpack. Private, on the opposite side of a hill from the road so little road noise. Loved this place!
