The apartment is nice, TVs are large and there is a lot to do. We brought bikes and this area is super bike friendly. The parking is a complete nightmare. The lot in front of the place is small and usually filled except between the hours of 8 to 10 when there is street cleaning Tuesday thru Thursday. Street cleaning almost everyday? Its a ticket bonanza for the local PD. SO you must park in the large public lot nearby, which is pretty busy. We came on a Sunday and it was full. Beach parking. So basically you need to move your car around playing musical chairs Tuesday thru Thursday if you want to drive anywhere. If you just want to park in the big lot, and find a space, you can just leave it there. But most folks will need the car to go to the market restaurant etc. However there is a Mexican takeout, Italian and BBQ joint that opens in the evening within walking distance. Just south on Mission.
