I'm really torn writing this review because our biggest concern is truly out of the control of the host.
Unfortunately the location is not walk-able to the convention center, as the listing advertised. Although the distance is "walkable" by distance's sake, the route requires you to cross a large encampment of homeless individuals. I walked once to the conference center with my briefcase full of valuables (camera, computer, iPad) in complete disbelieve of the neighborhood we were located in. My partner had a session that ended at 7:30pm and thought that scooting he would be less vulnerable crossing the area.... he was chased down with a knife. Drug use, loitering, foul smells, trash, made the area very unpleasant. Needless to say, we were left quite startled and disappointed with the neighborhood and lack of safety.
Be prepared to Uber to and from your locations, and please please please DO NOT walk home from the Gaslamp/convention center/petco park areas.
The unit itself:
The room, kitchen and bathrooms were minimalist, clean and as advertised. We never waited for a bathroom nor heard much noise from the other rooms! The safety within the house felt fine, and the check in/check out was super convenient. Perfect for a couple wanting privacy and quiet!
