Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the living space with light, and lofty ceilings make the whole room feel generous – a good base after days out at Balboa Park, the San Diego Zoo, or the Gaslamp Quarter, all within easy reach. Back in the complex, the resort-style pool and spa, sky deck with sweeping skyline views, wine lounge, and a round-the-clock fitness centre give you plenty of reasons to linger. The terrace adds another layer of outdoor San Diego living – and with air conditioning waiting inside, there's a comfortable retreat whenever you need it.
