    "I live in Cortez hill now and have been here for about 2 years. I love it! It’s like a neighborhood within downtown San Diego. Close to everything but not right in the middle of all the bustle"
  • Misskt004
    "quiet and accessible to many things such as Gaslamp, little Italy and farmer's market, Balboa Park, Petco Park, the Harbor..."
  • Melissa L.
    "We love the Cortez Hill neighborhood. It is quiet, safe and a nice retreat from the busier part of downtown. You can walk to anything downtown San Diego has to offer...short walk to Little Italy and Gaslamp. It is conveniently located to the highway."
  • Anique S.
    "The area in Cortez hill is safe. It's a nice and quiet retreat away from the Gaslamp, but within short walking distance to the area's top restaurants, entertainment, and harbor. The location is perfect in between all of the main highways--traveling in and around San Diego is a breeze! I love the convenience of the El Cortez and the view isn't too bad either!"
  • "This is the Hill (Cortez named after historic hotel now turned condo built in 20s) just behind the core of downtown San Diego. The streets are tree-lined giving in a more neighborhood feel than the entertainment and business center a few blocks south. You can walk to all of downtown - Gaslamp, Little Italy, and Bay in 10 minutes and the neighborhood is adjacent to the 163 and I-5 Freeways"
