Renters beware! This place always feels 10-12 degrees warmer than the outside air temperature. Even after the sun goes down and the outside temperature is high 60’s to low 70’s, inside this place feels like it’s high 70’s to low 80’s.
Spent our first evening in La Jolla driving around trying to find fans, ended up at Walmart to buy two 20” fans to supplement the 10” fan left by Carol.
After first night of trying to sleep in the heat, I politely asked for a refund for the subsequent 2 nights. To which, I was politely denied. She offered to bring more fans. At one point, we saw a 6” fan on a table that I think was meant for us, but looked woefully underpowered to address the heat in the unit.
Forget about spending the afternoon relaxing in this unit, bc that’s when it’s at its hottest. Tried showering to stay cool, only to begin sweating while watching tv. Which had to be on full blast bc of all the fans going. It would be a comedy if it weren’t such a tragedy.
But, San Diego is awesome!
Highlights are:
-Rigoberto’s at the end of the block for delicious burritos.
-Juniper and Ivy - a Top Chef Richard Blaise restaurant.
-Bleu Boheme - great French restaurant in Normal Heights
-Kayaking the La Jolla caves, just be there 30 mins before your reservation bc parking is nonexistent.
-renting a convertible and driving around to see everything.
-Uber was always just a few minutes away.
Lowlights are:
-dreading coming back to the heat of this unit.
-sweating while trying to fall asleep.
-having to seriously consider just giving up my money and renting a hotel.
