It's a small little studio within walking distance of a lot of stuff. I would say we walked about 85% of the time to the places we wanted to go: the zoo, balboa park, little italy, the gaslamp district, etc. We had to pay for parking at a lot that was around the corner. There was a really cute and tasty little coffee shop right up the road, probably a three minute walk, it was good! The little courtyard out back was perfect for us, we brought our dog and we played some fetch back there. We had a good time. I would say for the price of other pet friendly places in SD it was a good value. But if we didn't have a dog we may have stayed somewhere cheaper. Overall, a good experience!
