Dear Sara, Thank you for the “very nice” review. I have to admit that I did not sleep very well at home last night and when I read “best sleep of my life”, I wished that I had chosen to stay here instead. We believe our courtyard style adds a little unexpected charm and quaintness and are delighted that you... More

“Very Nice and Close to Everything”

Nice hotel, moderate price. Close to shops, La Jolla cove. Just a wonderful place. You can pay much, much more someplace else in the area. There are numerous restaurants and bars. All good. Parking excellent, access to freeways and other destinations in San Diego. Do stay here, it's well worth it. Just walking the area is great, an all day... More

I spent 1 night at this hotel. Room was clean, staff was nice, in-room internet was working fine. I asked for late checkout, which was ok with them, however, they forgot about it the next morning.

Best thing about this place was that it was a few short blocks to a pleasant little beach and from there a pleasant run to the Sea Coves and downtown La Jolla heading north. If you're not a runner it would be a bit of a walk--but pleasant. And the small beach directly west of the Holiday Inn would be... More
