Reviews and Ratings
I was delighted by the beautiful neighborhood the hotel is located in, with easy access to La Jolla Shores beach. The rooms come with updated showers, a kitchen, and even provided fans, making for a comfortable stay. However, the lack of air conditioning in the rooms can be a drawback. The service was excellent, and the laundry service was a convenient addition. Overall, a great location with some room for improvements in room amenities.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and well-equipped, but the shower could use an update. The service was top-notch, with great help from the laundry service. The location in a peaceful area was perfect for relaxation, but the price felt a bit high. The dining experience, with an included breakfast featuring delicious eggs, was a highlight. Overall, a lovely hotel with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel is located really close to the beach in a beautiful neighborhood, making it a prime spot for beach lovers. The rooms are spacious and modern, featuring excellent facilities including a full kitchen, which adds great value. The service, though lacking laundry facilities, is top-notch with friendly staff always ready to assist. Dining, although offering oysters, may not cater to all tastes. The hotel's facilities are convenient and well-maintained, providing a comfortable stay overall.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean and had all the amenities I needed, including an updated shower and a kitchen. The provided fans were a nice touch, making the room comfortable even on warmer days. However, the price was a bit on the higher side for the value offered.
