Amazing location. Waking up and opening shades to see the sparkling pacific is breathtaking. Felt safe and quiet and bed was comfortable. Decor is outdated and bland w ugly carpets and generic feeling like a courtyard Marriott. Staff kind. Walk the coast and to great food and shopping. Parakeet for breakfast and coffees and treats. Also like Trilogy for healthy bowls and dishes.

The staff was wonderful, the property was in downtown La Jolla, within minutes walking distance to the ocean, restaurants, and shopping. The room rate was quite reasonable for a balcony and ocean view, decor was nice and the bed was comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!

Midde of the road
We stayed for 3 nights. It was just okay. The overall rating was higher than I think it deserves. The rooms are an average size. Each room has a mini fridge. The bathroom was dated and a little grungy around the base of the tub. The water pressure was pretty bad and the drain was slow. The positive was the lack of water pressure prevented me from being ankle deep in water. We were in room 422. The noise above us was terrible. His jumping and running back and forth. This was at 6am. I had to call the front desk. Now, I understand they can't control who is in what room (kids or no kids). The only thing I wondered is if people reside above that room. I suspect this because at about 8:30 am it sounded like someone sweeping a hard surface floor (not carpet, like our room). Then one day we were there in the evening and there was vacuuming above us. There was a partial ocean view and balcony. You can park on site for $20/day. The pool area was nice-though we didn't swim. There is a common area off the pool area that has coffee, vending machines and a microwave. It was walking distance to most things in the area, as well as the water. It was not bad but I would not chose it again.
