Anthony's place is in an amazing location! From the lovely park next door to tons of eateries within walking and a short driving distance. You think of it and it is around you. Sitting out on the front porch enjoying the morning air, drinking hot tea while watching the birds and seeing the joggers and dogs go by was super relaxing.
The neighborhood is relatively quiet but you will hear the occasional motorcycle of loud car go by as you are on a main street. It wasn't an issue that had any impact on sleep for any of us. And speaking of sleep...the beds. Plentiful! Two bedrooms, one of which I loved the mahogany dresser, with nice comfy beds and even better comforters! Loads of space for clothes and places to store suitcases. Other bedroom has an en-suite which comes in super handy. In the living room are two additional twin beds that are equally as comfortable.
Yes, some people may complain about the "dated feel" but it is an older building with charm! And that is something you can't get in a hotel. The fold out ironing table in the bedroom is totally cute. And the wood floors! LOVE THEM!! Oh, and you're probably thinking that because it is an older building the water pressure must be horrible or the hot water must be non-existent. WRONG! Great pressure and hot water for days! I had four people, two of whom are teenagers and there was plenty. There is AC and heat and I can tell you the heat works wonderfully as we did end up using it on our last day.
The kitchen has just about everything you can think of to cook a decent meal. Tea kettle, coffee maker, microwave, pots, etc. If you decide to cook just bring the food and you are set! Of course, as I said you are in the heart of so many food places around you may not want to cook! There is also a newer washer and dryer in the unit which is very nice.
Anthony is a very personable and outgoing host. He has by far been one of my favorite Air BnB hosts that I have had the pleasure of meeting. Anthony, I thank you for opening up your home and allowing my family to continue, this our 15 year tradition, in San Diego.
