This may be one of the best AirBnb's we've ever stayed in! (Definitely top 5 - and we've stayed in some great places.) The condo is well-apportioned - updated and very clean. Having the rooftop views was phenomenal! (It is a spiral staircase up, so for those who have mobility issues, that may be a challenge - for everyone else, it is totally worth the climb!) The 2nd story patio is wonderful with a gas fire pit and grill. We had everything we needed to cook - even a spice rack!
The condo is very well located near a "fancier" grocery store that should have just about everything you need and then a slightly less pricy liquor store nearby as well. When I say they are nearby, I mean a 30 second walk to either. There is also a taco place and little restaurant in that same proximity which both looked good, but we didn't try them out.
The king sized bed in the master and queen in the 2nd bedroom were both great and the high ceilings throughout really felt spacious. The TV in the master bedroom was nice - and the living room TV is huge!
The 5-7 minute walk down to the beach was very doable and they have beach chairs that you can take down there to sit and watch the sunset/rise or just to watch the surfers.
A few minor drawbacks - there is some noise in the mornings. Very early - like 5 AM two different folk came through the alleyway looking through the trash for bottles. Very loud! And there is construction next door. On Monday morning at about 7 or 7:30, a worker was on the roof pounding on something and drilling for about 20 minutes. Then, we heard almost nothing over there for the rest of the day. Also, Sunday morning, the trash truck came in and the backup alert (beeping) was steady for 3-5 minutes. (My son in the smaller bedroom heard none of this noise, but the master bedroom faces the construction side as well as the alleyway.) Even still, the noise is not a deal-breaker - just be aware.
I would highly highly recommend this place if you're going to be in La Jolla!!
