We needed a place to stay since we were going to San Diego for a show and when we found this property it was perfect. From the neighborhood location to the actual property this location is great. Close to petco park and the gas lamp. The property was very clean and well kept. It was a group of 5 of us staying and there was enough room for us all. Our cars all fit nicely in the driveway which was a plus. We all loved this property and hope to stay again at some point.
