Great spot for a solo traveler. Loved the location - just over a block to the beach (and once there, the farther north you walk, the more you’ll find - tidal pools, seals and sea lions, sandy beaches, rugged cliffs) and just over a block to the start of the La Jolla business district. A 10-minute-or-less walk gets you to a convenience store, supermarket, pharmacy and a dozen great restaurants (my favorite: Cafe Milano on Pearl Street). Make it 20 minutes, and you can walk pretty much anywhere in the village and get to art galleries, a movie theater and countless more restaurants. Ed is a great host - I had two small issues my first night, and he took care of both the next day.
