Location: This is the best part! We loved La Jolla so much that maybe one day we'll move there! This place is a little walk or a very short drive/bike away from the Village and La Jolla Cove area. Hanging out in the area, watching the natural beauty and flora and fauna and eating out at local restaurants made it special.
Space: the description is pretty accurate (ideal for a single person or a couple, can possibly include a child) but here are a few areas where I'd differ:
1. A third person would he hard to fit in, unless you need absolutely no privacy (expected in a studio).
2. Washer and dryer are not as easily accessible as the listing shows. They are in the garage, adjacent to the room. It is fully stocked with washing stuff though.
3. Bathroom sink is clogged (you can run the tap maybe 20-30seconds before it will overflow) and the bath is very slow to drain as well (you'll have water above your knees after a 4-5 minute bath). We asked the host about these but these are as designed. The bathroom sink should be able to drain faster but we couldn't manage to budge the stopper any more up (it seemed like it was either stuck or already at the widest open position).
Host: Elizabeth was very responsive, made arrangements for us to check in early without us asking for it (as it was a strong downpour) and let us check out late (as it was not rented the next day). She also gave us a lot of local suggestions - which we thoroughly enjoyed.
We had such a fun time and the location made it special for us.
