Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is ideally located close to beautiful beaches and downtown La Jolla, making it a perfect spot for walking, beach activities, and exploring nearby restaurants. The rooms are clean, cozy, and well-decorated, with new sizable rooms that offer a comfortable stay. The service was friendly and efficient in addressing any issues, enhancing the overall experience. While the dining options were satisfactory, offering a good variety, a few more healthy choices could have made it even better. Overall, the hotel provides great value for money with its convenient location and comfortable accommodations.
The hotel's rooms were a bit outdated and didn't quite match the $350/night price we paid. Despite finding a wrapper from a previous guest at the coffee station, the room was comfortable, clean, had a very cozy bed, and a spacious shower. The location is a mix of drawbacks and advantages, situated within walking distance of the lovely Windansea beach and its charming shops and restaurants but with a parking lot right outside the window. The service had its ups and downs, with the ability to accommodate us in a smaller accessible room being a standout positive alongside moments of rudeness. The dining experience served as a decent start to the day, although it could get slightly repetitive after a couple of days.
The hotel is conveniently located in a nice neighborhood, making it a pleasant experience for walking around, with a good sunset view. The rooms were comfortable enough for pit stops between outings, but it could have been cleaner for a perfect score. The service went above and beyond by extending our stay despite inventory challenges, yet the noise levels were noticeable despite housekeeping efforts.
The hotel is situated in a perfect location just a block from the beach, offering clean and tidy rooms, super comfy beds, and great views. The service was exceptional, with helpful and friendly staff. The dining experience was rated as the best, and the hotel has a great location to relax or enjoy a meal outdoors.
I had a great stay at the hotel, located just a few blocks from the shore in upscale La Jolla. The rooms were comfortable with a nice kitchenette but had a slight mildew smell. The service was friendly and helpful, but there were some noise issues from the air conditioning systems. The dining options were varied and enjoyable, making it feel like a family-oriented hotel.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were very clean and perfect for one or two small to medium-sized adults, but the air conditioning position near the bed was a bit uncomfortable. The service was exceptional despite some issues with breakfast. The location was great for accessing the nearby beaches even though there were some noise and pricing concerns. Dining options were limited but satisfactory, and the facilities were convenient.
