We had an awesome 4-day stay. The staff was absolutely amazing. The linens were lovely and the room was spacious. The heater worked perfectly and stepping out of our room was right downtown LA jolla. We walked everywhere. I will definitely stay here again. And check out the Manhattan restaurant on the first floor. Great live music every night and wonderful food.

I liked the ambience and easy check in. It was a nice stay for the event we were there for and was walking distance from the beach. The breakfast was alright , the juice machine wasn’t working and my son likes apple juice. Eggs, sausage , bread and bagels were easy serve and close to the room to eat and relax .
