“Special Studio In Center Of San Diego provides an affordable, clean base of operations in a prime location. While some past guests have noted noise from overhead aircraft and minor wear and tear, the studio's central San Diego spot is a definite plus, especially considering the price point. I think the attentiveness of the host also stands out.”
