The ostensibly 'premier room' we booked was in fact right next door to the elevator shaft (which kept us awake all night), had an old musty smell, a bathroom light that would automatically switch off every 2 mins. Were it not for the kind staff and good restaurant downstairs, i would give this a 1-star rating

The hotel was very well run and we enjoyed our stay. It was so close to the shore line that we could walk to the sea lions. The room and bathroom had been updated nicely but our only complaint was the shower. The water barely came out of the shower head. It wasn't that the pressure was low it was non existent. I would also encourage you get a room not too close to the elevator. It was a little noisy at night but it is an old hotel.

Great stay in La Jolla

Everybody was so friendly and helpful. All the valet guys were the best! They dropped us off and picked us up at all our restaurants in their adorable golf cart, made suggestions and gave us directions. Only had drinks and desert at the restaurant but all the food looked amazing.
