We enjoyed our stay here overall despite some challenges. Nice interior with every amenity needed in the kitchen for basic cooking. Thankful they accommodated kids with a high chair and pack and play when we arrived. It had very easy access to the touristy part of downtown La Jolla and only a couple of blocks walk to get down to the beach. The bummer was 1) the loud noise as many others have noted (bring a sound machine or put a fan right by the bed!) and 2) the unloading and then parking (1-2 blocks away sometimes) was more difficult to manage than we expected, especially with a toddler and stroller to cart up and down stairs and to and from the car. I would recommend those with kids not get the upstairs unit and aim for the downstairs instead. It would have been far easier to navigate. 3) The listing had no photos of the exterior at all and only way after booking did I realize it was a second level unit. My fault, but also that info was not obvious in the main listing or photos. 4) The lack of AC was also rough to navigate at first but they provided plenty of fans there which were very helpful to strategically put around the place. Overall we had a good time in La Jolla and may stay with Avant-stay again, but may not stay at this specific unit with our baby.
