This place is located so close to the beach and in view of the ocean and in a very quiet neighborhood. There is also lots of natural lighting in the main part of the apartment. There were plenty of good restaurants and beaches all within walking distance. If you're a stickler for cleanliness, however, you will find some shortcomings such as kitchenware, windows and window sills. Nevertheless, I would highly recommend this place as a base for exploring La Jolla in particular.
