This apartment is clean, spacious and very well located. There’s many restaurants within walking distance, a grocery store across the street and a Starbucks a block away. The central part of the Gaslamp District is maybe 1/2 mile away. (Pro tip: homelessness is ubiquitous in downtown San Diego but the city manages to keep J Street clear of homeless people. That’s the safest route to get to the Gaslamp and the waterfront.) There’s free parking in the basement of the building.
For a central urban location it’s relatively quiet, only the occasional siren and motorcycle noise. I’m a light sleeper and had zero problems.
The only minor potential issue is that the key pickup location is a few blocks away. For those who are driving, this is not really an issue as it took maybe five minutes to go get it. But for those who might be using Uber or a taxi from the airport, it’s likely a bit of an inconvenience.
Five stars! I’d happily stay there again.
