Even though I didn't meet Ed during my stay, he was readily available when I called/text. The description of the place was accurate. Although the place wasn't new, it was clean and had a bit of character. The best part about the Studio Ravina was the location in La Jolla. It was walking distance to the beach and the shops. We were able to walk short distances to see the seals at the beach, for brunch/lunch/dinner, shopping, workout gyms, etc. For the price, you couldn't find anything better than that in La Jolla. Even though, it was a studio, he was spacious for me, my husband, and son. Because of the close proximity to most things, we spent little time in the apartment itself. Parking was convenient, as we were able to park on the street right across from the apartment.
