All very well kept and clean. Front desk felt kind of rushed, though. Also, loud, inconsiderate neighbors that we knew no one would do anything about in So Cal.

I love the added little touches that were an "upgrade" for the room such as a standing desk and light that gives you the temperature of the room. Very clean, especially the pool which I find can be a hit or miss at a hotel. Staff was very friendly and able to answer any questions that I had about the stay. As someone who needed to be displaced from my home due to flooding and mold exposure, this was a very refreshing stay for me during this time. Thank you!

Good little spot in La Jolla

Very cute place that is close to a lot of fun including a 10 minute walk to the north part of Pacific Beach. Lovely service, quiet, comfy bed with a great A/C system. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend.
