We pick between 3 hotels in the area and this is one of our favorites. Very nice customer service and very clean. The parking and view were the reason we decided to book at another nearby but this is definitely a recommendation for the area. It's walkable and a nice hotel for couples or someone traveling alone and wanting a safe area walkable near your room.

Cozy, comfortable hotel in downtown La Jolla. Excellent staff ensure a pleasurable stay at the Inn as well as La Jolla. Seal Rock and ocean walkways are minutes away, with multiple dining selections. The Inn offers coupons/discounts for several nearby restaurants. Rooms are a tad dated, but comfortable. Onsite parking (free with Expedia VIP) always has open spots. Only 15 minutes from UCSD, but with all of the benefits of being in La Jolla. Definitely would stay again.
