Strategic location with amazing ocean view

We love this hotel. First of, the location is very strategic, it’s walking distance to La Jolla Cove, downtown La Jolla, and La Jolla Sunday Farmer’s Market. We booked the ocean view room with balcony, the view was amazing! We will come back to this hotel!

Comfortable stay while at UCSD hospital

My husband was in UCSD and stayed at this hotel. Miquel and Marion were wonderful making me feel as comfortable as possible under the circumstances. I highly recommend this hotel as a lower price option to some of the high priced downtown La Jolla rooms. Excellent location and service.
