We were recently in town for the Optometric Association's annual meeting which was held at the San Diego Convention Center. We had rented another condo for the week, and after staying there one night, knew it was not the place for us. I got back on VRBO.com, and found this gem!! Shawn was wonderful. Not only were we the first guests to stay in his condo, but he was able to get us booked and checked in all within a few short hours. Talk about making things happen at the last minute!!
The location was superb. To attend my classes, it took me 6 minutes to walk from the front door of the condo to the classrooms in the convention center. You just can't get any closer than that. Staying in the heart of the Gaslamp Quarter, everything we needed was right there. Grocery stores, fabulous restaurants and bars, banks, a movie theater, Starbucks, and shopping were all within easy walking distance of the condo. There was even parking in the garage below the building for our rental car, but the rental car really wasn't needed at all.
The condo itself was beautiful!! Great kitchen, comfy bed, nice office area to get some work done. Everything in the condo was brand new (we removed all the tags ourselves, hope you don't mind, Shawn). The patio upstairs on the roof with the grill and seating area was a great place to hang out and eat our meals.
Shawn was always just a phone call or text away, and very accommodating and fun to work with. We will DEFINITELY return!! Thanks for making our stay in San Diego such a wonderful experience, and especially for making it all happen at a moment's notice. No last minute travel plans for us next time. We know right where to go for the best San Diego has to offer.
