Having read the previous reviews, our expectations were matched. It is the equivalent of a cheap motel but downtown San Diego pricing (~145$/night: 2ppl with fees+taxes). We stayed president's day weekend arriving Fri night leaving Wed. We dropped off our bags and then actually came back ~midnight, greeted with a girl vomiting next to the door on the street. The street noise was continuous until 2:30am, but the host left ear plugs which was nice. We removed the AC unit from the window on Saturday to allow for the window to properly close. Although it did not change much for Saturday's noise (also until 2:30). We were scared but it was silent Sunday-Tuesday without issue, so if you plan to stay out late or non-WE this is your place. The bed was comfortable and the only issue was the towels were stained with a hair on one. We brought our own towels since such issues were previously noted in reviews and did not contact the host for new ones. The host was very communicative and friendly.
