Best hotel in town at a great price.

We always love staying here when we visit La Jolla. It's centrally located downtown close to shops and restaurants. The rooms are always clean and comfortable with plenty of space. The rooms have a refrigerator , but no microwave. The people that work here are the best! Always so friendly and helpful! We will always stay here!

Not sparkling new or luxurious by any means, but in great area overall. A bit on the pricy side. Great location, walking distance to everything including the Sea Lions, enough parking.
