I didn't meet Michael in person, but he made sure I find my way and feel at home from the beginning on. The place is really amazing, you can tell he put a lot of work and love of details into it. I walked to little italy, the gaslamp district and even the convention center from there in less than 30min. A busride to the Airport takes a few minutes walk and then 15min ride, so everything is really close by and the location is great. This of course comes with a very close view of planes landing at the airport, but I didn't hear any from about 12 to 6am and could sleep very well.
