Location is prime next to the exclusive LJ Beach and Tennis Club. Short walk to LJ Shores restaurants and shops. Excellent and safe neighborhood. Will stay here again.
This was a wonderful little Inn! Very comfortable and clean. Within walking distance to many restaurants and a close walk to La Jolla shores! We highly recommend!
The room was comfortable. Great little apartment with sofa, chair, small kitchen, table and back bedroom. The tub was a little slippery and the drain would back up so we were standing in water while showering. Overall though, great place to stay and walkable to the beach, dining, and shops.
We arrived for late check in. There was a box with a phone. We called and were given a code to retrieve our key from a box. We let ourselves into our room, entered all the way past the living area and kitchen to the bedroom before realizing it was occupied -- with personal items on the bed, thankfully whoever's room it was was away! Back to the phone we were directed to another locked box with a code to find a master key to let ourselves into the room next door. It had a broken blind, low quality - hard and uncomfortable pillows, crappy bed with questionable bedding. A handicap room -- the shower was wheelchair accessible, but the shower curtain didn't reach the floor so water got all over the bathroom -- not safe for anyone. And worse, there was a bunch of hair left behind from someone else in the shower! We were uncomfortable, and felt unsafe all night. In hindsight should have left and found something else. Overall an outdated and "cheap" dirty motel. An overall horrible experience!
The property was in a quite residential area. The room and all amentias were out dated. The room overall was a good size but I felt like I was in the 80's.
Excellent place. Second time stay. All is great but it doesn't have a USB charger outlet. It really should get this upgrade. Last time i brought my own, this time i didn't. So i turned off the phone to save battery !
I was impressed on how great and quiet the location was. Close to very good restaurants and the beach. Parking in the street was easy. Staff was super friendly and kind. The kitchen had everything that you need but we did not even used it as we stayed only one night as we will drive north. We will definitely come back again and stay at the same place if we are ever in San Diego again.
This is an apartment complex with some units used as hotel rooms. The complex is cute and quiet and in a great area where you can walk to La Jolla Shores and restaurants. I only stayed for one night; it would be perfect for a longer stay since you have a full kitchen. There is no A/C and the weekend I stayed it was very very hot so the living room area never got cool but fan in bedroom window did manage. Tiny complaint is that window shades did not close all the way to room was not dark. Very comfortable and I will definitely come back if I travel to this area.
Lisa who checked me in is so nice. She remembered me from last year. The place is cool.

Comfortable hotel within walking distance of beach
Wonderful location just a 5 minute walk from the beach and restaurants. The rooms are a bit dated, but very spacious, clean, and comfortable. We would definitely stay again!
