I was told by the hotel that they gave away my room after a very long day at seaworld with my daughter asleep in the car. They even emailed me earlier in the day to see if i was still going to check in. I responded that i was and received no response. When i got there they told me they had no rooms and sent me to a different hotel 20 min away and said i didnt have to pay. After a 20 min wait for the paper he was going to send me to the other hotel with, he came out with the letter which said that my reservation was being sent over to their hotel and that i was responsible for the charges. It was unfortunate because we liked this hotel. I understand this happens, but it was a very rough night.

Please was super friendly and staff was nice. Rooms were good. Breakfast was excellent. They had a full buffet of so many choices to eat and we ate there for free every morning. Only downside is that they said someone would come clean the room every day and they didn’t. They came once. But otherwise rooms were nice. Parking was easy (they charge $25 a night) and staff was great.

I constantly came out of my room and saw trash bags, loose trash and towels left by housekeeping. The air conditioning went out the last two days we were there. Maintenance came and could not fix it. Offered to put us in another room our last night but it was too much of a hassle for one night. No apologies, no credit offered for the inconvenience, I felt brushed off. It was summer and it was HOT, so the AC going out was miserable. The pull out “sofa bed”… I didn’t expect much, but I didn’t expect to feel springs. The room was pricey, pictures online looked much better than what we got. Would not stay here again.

Great stay!!
I was a late arrival and I was so tired, and I was greeted with kindness and was very welcoming. She checked me in quickly and I requested a first floor room near my car and she was able to accommodate me. The room was awesome and well equipped. I will definitely be returning!

I booked this inn for two rooms, two nights for the fourth of july weekend, and this place is nice, clean, the staff are so hospitable and polite and the location is so convenient for going to the La Jolla Cove and the surrounding areas! Some of the other reviews do mention the maintenance of the property, but and while there was some paint chips on the outer of the doors, that was mostly it. The rooms were so much nicer and spacious than I originally thought and I felt very comfortable. Would definitely recommend!
