The loft is just as pictured. Plenty of room for the two of us and very nicely decorated. Other than the planes which are mentioned in the listing (but do seem to quiet down at night) the building was super quiet. The bed was very comfortable and the record player is a nice touch. William was spot on with his recommendation of The Marketplace for deli sandwiches for our picnic lunch on a sail boat. We would stay here again if we come back to San Diego.
