Whew, where do I start. Checking in was done entirely on our own which would have been ideal except we kept having to reach out to the owners for small things like hand soap or trash bins etc. Which was especially frustrating considering we paid a hefty service fee. My girlfriend and I wanted to get away for a weekend and thought this place would be the perfect little spot. After all the “service” and “cleaning” fees it ended up being a very expensive endeavor. So our expectations were high, as they should be for the price. Once we arrived the room was very dark, almost all the bulbs were out and there were two tiny windows, one almost entirely covered by the fridge (would suggest replacing it with a mini fridge so there is more light in there). We asked the owner to replace the bulbs for us and he didn’t even do all the lights so it was very dark for the entirety of our stay (3 nights). When we got back from the beach we wanted to just chill and watch some TV but the cable barely worked, we maybe got 5 channels. Our backup was to watch the Napoleon dynamite DVD they so graciously left on top of the DVD player, low and behold, it was empty. So that sucked. They have a grill so we wanted to do a little bbq our first night, but it was very dirty and they didn’t have a brush to clean the grill. Also had trouble starting. We ended up cooking on the mini stove ( weird seasoning selection aka bring salt and pepper ) and ate outside on the curb to ‘watch the sunset’ because the patio furniture was filthy, covered in dirt, sand, cobwebs and dog hair 👍🏼. Our last night the toilet ran all night, making it really difficult to sleep. Eventually it stopped being able to flush, so we had to go out to use the bathroom. Also tried to use the laundry but both the washer and dryer were full of clothes whenever I went to try and use it. If you’re looking for a place to stay multiple nights and enjoy some amenities this is not that place. Beach access was great but it’s a tiny beach and we only went for a couple hours one day of our stay. There’s a ton of other beaches to explore. If you’re staying in La Jolla for more than one night this isn’t the place.
