This is a charming area about a 10 minute walk to La Jolla Shores business district and 15 minutes to the beach. During our stay, the unit was very quiet with residents very respectful of one another. You have your own covered parking. The unit is a studio apartment, so you will need to be a bit imaginative to make the space work for you. But we loved it. Jason is a great host, very responsive and very helpful about details.
