Unfortunately the partial ocean view we paid for was very partial once on the balcony if I turned my chair to look through the adjoining patio. Which wasn’t a problem but they had a dog and there want a barrier in place to keep the dog on their side. The air conditioning didn’t work. The food/drinks were very overpriced. Also - most importantly- the big surprise was even with the lack of resort amenities they charged an extra $40/per day at the end of the stay. This should have been clearly stated earlier on or been part of the initial cost. We will not be staying there again because of this fraudulent way of doing business.

Great location on the beach! Loved the courtyard area with games. The pool was great, and the location to local restaurants and kayak tours was all within walking distance. Big plus for us! The rooms are simple and very clean. Loved the commons area, coffee provided in the morning, and beach access!

I just visited with my 2 teenagers - boy/girl twins 16 yo. This was our 1rst time to La Jolla. We stayed 4 nights. Was a little concerned when I read about the hotel. being old. I LOVED this hotel. it literally has everything.. The free coffee in the morning at the restaurant was such a nice treat in the am. The patio is beachfront and a great place to watch the surfers or just stare out at the ocean and listen to the sounds. We had an umbrella and chairs set up 2 of the days - the boys at the beach stand are so helpful and polite. The pool and hot tub were a bit monopolized at times by a large family but it wasn't that big of a deal for us. I enjoyed watching the fabulous sunset from the front "lawn" area in the Adirondack chairs listening to nice background music. The restaurant is so convenient and has great food albeit a bit on the expensive side. The location for this hotel is so easy to access I- 5. The kids and I walked to La Jolla Cove the first day - some of it was on a major road. it was about 1.5-2 miles to the Cove. We did not rent a car - we have Ubered whenever we wanted to go to a different area. Low Key mellow vibe! Relaxing, peaceful, comfortable beds. Yes the hotel could use a few upgrades but there is nothing urgent. The outdoor patio space is nice and

Enjoyed everything, except: - dated hotel, stained and broken parts of the room in bathroom areas, wifi constantly kicks you off the network and makes you rejoin every minute (resort fee provides broken wifi????), and you are not able to park in their garage after check out, meaning you have to park elsewhere to enjoy the beach.
