The location was great for anyone looking to stay in San Diego and/or near Little Italy. It was nice to be able to walk to so many restaurants and coffee shops. We also walked from the place to Balboa Park (20ish minute walk) and the waterfront. The fan was a little noisy but kept the place nice and cool, and as it says and shows in the description, be prepared for the ladder to get up to the bed, but the place worked great for me and my wife to stay for a few nights.
