Hotel staff was friendly but often not at front desk making you wait. Room and bed comfortable But street very noisy. Hotel provides earplugs. Room stuffy unless you open sliding glass door to patio but this lets in street noise.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our first room was poorly designed and difficult to navigate. The AC blew hot air, and the fridge didn’t work. We were moved to a second room located directly across from the reception area, which made it quite noisy. The AC initially worked but soon began blowing hot, humid air. The towels were old, rough, and very small, and the duvet had visible blood stains. The only saving grace was some of the front desk staff, who were kind and genuinely tried to help.

Small, clean rooms, good location, friendly staff

Good location in the middle of the busy area of La Jolla but also right next to the water. Staff was very nice. It's a small hotel with small rooms but they were clean and the bathroom is modern. My room was directly beneath the rooftop bar so you could loudly hear chairs dragging until it closed at 11pm or so.

If you are unfortunate enough to get a room under the rooftop restaurant, you will not get any sleep whatsoever. It was so incredibly loud, even with a sound machine and earplugs. We could not fall asleep until the restaurant had closed and cleaned up for the day and woke up to the restaurant opening up.

We very much enjoyed this quaint place. The location right downtown can’t be beat, and the room was very comfortable. Service was great, other than the fact that we wanted to go to the bar upstairs early Saturday evening and were told title was “full” and turned away. Not sure if we should have mentioned we were hotel guests and if that would have helped. Either way, great hotel and we’ll definitely stay there again next time we’re in La Jolla.

We were put in a room next door to the rooftop bar. It was EXTREMELY loud at night . The staff woke us up with all the banging as we were next to the staff room and storage room. It was probably the worst location in the entire hotel. I'm sure we were put there because we went through Expedia. Although we were offered another room, it was tiny in comparison and we had already unpacked so we toughed it out. The cost did not reflect that and I think we should have had a discount for the inconvenience and price we paid! Staf was nice . The stairs are very public as is the bathroom right outside our room! Would not stay again.
