This is a great and affordable pad in a walkable neighborhood. We walked to downtown La Jolla as well as Bird Rock. The place itself is small and cozy-it is equipped with the essentials (coffee maker, dishes, pots and pans etc.), a small dining table, bed, and a TV. We spent only two nights at the cottage so we really did not get to enjoy it too much but i would definitely recommend it. The private patio is a huge bonus.
