Great base for exploring La Jolla
We were extremely happybwith our stay. The staff were helpful and friendly, the rooms were clean and comfortable and the breakfast was delicious and plentiful. The pool was clean and cool. The hotel itself is a good basebfor exploring La Jolla and the rest of San Diego, which is what we use iit for. We would happily book again.

Great breakfast, location, and pool
Had a really good experience. Location was great and close enough to the beach that we could walk. Breakfast was one of the best continental breakfast experiences I’ve had at a hotel. Kids had lots of fun in the heated pool. The only negative was we could sometimes feel a bar when we slept in certain positions.

Excellent stay, location and service
We stayed here because of the location, but would highly recommend this to other family and friends. The rooms were a great size for a family of five, the breakfast was really good and had lots of options. My girls especially love the shower pressure in the showers.

Worst hotel experience of my life
Major contruction right outside my room at 7:30 a.m.. I should have been warned about this durig check-in or offered a diffenet room by the pool or other area away from the contruction. There was no volume level I could put on the TV to make any dialogue hearable. Worst hotel experience of my life.

Great!!
Amazing property! It’s a little oddly built, but I understand due to space constraints. I loved the room and the property. Great pool AND jacuzzi. We stayed in a regular room. The bathroom is a little cozy, but it works for the 1-night that we stayed. I also loved the included breakfast. They have a pancake making machine!! And eggs, bacon, all the cold stuff- cereal, fruit, yogurt. Delicious start to a wonderful day. Also pro tip, the Chinese restaurant across the parking lot is delish- had a great dinner there and walked back :)

So grateful for this place
This place was such a comfort to us during the LA fires. It’s charming, cute, and comfy in a perfect location close to the beach, with the nicest staff imaginable. We were so grateful to have such a safe place to land in a hard time, and can’t wait to go back under better circumstances! Also they have a real hot breakfast daily and lovely outdoor spaces!
