Pros:
1) Location
2) View & Floor Plan
3) Style & Comfort
Areas which need improvement:
1) Window screens are very finicky and quite time consuming & frustrating to use. There’s no AC, so this is a high use item which repeatedly fell apart. Had to reinstall the screens on their tracks multiple times a day. Annoying, but I didn’t feel there was a short term fix for it (short of replacing it long term).
2) This a duplex and the owner/host was staying at the unit above ours during our stay. Not sure how often this happens, but the privacy factor wasn’t the best during our stay. While the host was kind & helpful throughout our stay, we would have preferred more privacy 9 out of 10 times. I may have booked elsewhere had I known we’d share some commons areas during our stay.
3) The room fans were extremely dusty. Bedroom furniture was a bit dusty. Surprising during a pandemic....especially given how clean the rest of the areas appeared.
All in all I would give this place a 5/5 if it weren’t for the 3 complaints listed above. Thanks for hosting us Karl...you’ve got a great spot in La Jolla.
