Guest Reviews
- Keane (6/5): - Convenient location - easy to walk to restaurant and beach. After hours pick up of key was simple. We specifically booked the room to have access to a pool for swimming (practicing snorkeling) and as an alternative to the beach -- The pool was closed for maintenance and we were not notified in advance.
- Ludwig (8/5): -
- Olivia (7/5): Overall a nice stay, the beach was within walking distance and parking was free and very convenient. - The location was great and parking was convenient. The pool was closed the majority of the time we were there.
- sharon (6/5): It was quiet, tucked behind a main street and close to our wedding event destination. - So convenient to have a small kitchen and sitting space. It was very welcoming, clean, with a comfortable bed. It could use some updating.
- Olivia (8/5): -
- Yvonne (8/5): - It was walking distance to the beach, cafes and shopping. Kitchen included full refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker. Lovely neighborhood. Small pool but did not use. Friendly staff, easy check in and out. nothing
- Stefanie (6/5): - location near the beach and those I was visiting Felt really generic. No soap in bathroom. No sponge in kitchen. Utensils were hit and miss. The staff in the office was rarely present. I could not pick up my key during the afternoon but had to call to get a code later in the evening. The office door was open but no one was there when I first tried to get the key.
- Preston (7/5): Easy walk to the beach and shops nearby - Location location location
- Scubamax (10/5): Perfect little 50's style motel with rooms surrounding a central court with pool. - Cute little one bedroom apartment with a kitchen, living room and bedroom. Nothing fancy, but everything you need. Street parking always available, easy walking to beach and restaraunts.

- Eoin (10/5): Exceeded expectations - It was great having a kitchen Check in process was not great, my partner I arrived at 18:30 and no one was at recpetion to give us keys. A number was provided but our eurpean phones could not call number so we had to find someone with a working phone to call and get code for key lockbox. The phone next to lockbox was broken
- Marc (10/5): Has a retro feel. Dated appliances but completely refurnished and clean. No air conditioning but it’s San Diego. Fans - Perfect location close to the beach shops and work! I never saw a hotel employee. Office was closed when I arrived and when I checked out. No maid service
- Birgitta W H (9/5): Charmigt litet hotell med bra läge. - Vackert område. Promenadavstånd tillLa Jolla Shores o många bra restauranger.
Tyst, rent, skön säng. Fin pool. Bra personal. Bra men ljudlig värme. Ingen luftkonditionering. Rummet varmt vid ankomst. Ingen hiss. Tungt att bära upp väskor. Fick hjälp av personal..

- Janeth (10/5): Un lugar muy bello y cerca de todo - La ubicación Nada
- Delicia (10/5): The space in the room was excellent, and it’s not that far from the shops and bench. we got to see the sea lion cave, al - We love it We didn’t know the item by the pool was items we can take to the bench. The bosses would have been something nice to try to the bench with the waves.
- Courtney (8/5): Wonderful Spot for Families! - Absolutely delightful. Cozy, small kitchen, wonderful people, pool. Perfect for a family! It is an older hotel, and could benefit from a refresh in the kitchen.
- Maury (9/5): Stay here if you want a relaxed atmosphere, personable staff, clean rooms, and a fantastic location - Location was fabulous, as was the staff. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. The location was convenient - we could walk to the beach and restaurants. The room did not have ac, and it was a tad warm. It did have 2 window fans and a floor fan, but ac would have been nice.

- Janina (10/5): Super Lage, tolles Appartement - Toll ausgestattet, komplette Küche, große Wohnung, netter Pool. Super Lage, fußläufig zum Strand und zur Promenade. Schönes appartement im 50er Jahre Stil. Super sichere Gegend! Man muss die Jalousien geschlossen halten, sonst kann jeder reinschauen
- Krista (10/5): Hidden Gem - Exceptional, welcoming, helpful staff. Quiet facility. A homey, not touristy, feel to the place. Simple but had everything we needed. Easy walk to the beach and restaurants. Vertical, Venetian blinds could be updated.

- Alexander (8/5): Easy access to beach and cafes, clean and fully equiped - The size of the apartment was good, having a separate bedroom and a full kitchen (full cooker and fridge freezer). Any requests to staff were resolved quickly. (Bath slip mat, bin changes) No lift and being over 70 would have preferred to have been on ground floor bcos of lifting suitcases. Seemed a lot of metal fencing (although to safeguard children from the pool and to escape in case of fire was good)
- Shimako (8/5): -
- Karen (9/5): All and all my stay was very nice, was comfortable. - Location and beautiful view. Had a few issues with the shower drainage, was really slow.
Blinds in the living room were broken, couldn’t close.
Miss Debbie , the previous manager, informed me just no longer working there, what a loss.

- Forsey (8/5): -
- Melissa (10/5): - Loved staying here! Really enjoyed the spacious room with a living and kitchen area as well as the salt water pool. Very short walk to the La Jolla beach and nearby shops and dining. The bed wasn’t super comfortable but was okay for a short stay.
- CHERYL (10/5): - Excellent place. We will definitely return
- Di Dodo (6/5): Decent - location was nice. short walk to some cool food and shopping spots. There was a foul sewer odor, not from the hotel but from the street in the general area. Our room was double booked. These things happen, not a big issue. I just felt things could be a little cleaner. Carpet in rooms were a bit stained.
- Alberto (8/5): Tutto ok - Posizione Divano letto molto scomodo
- Tim (8/5): - Great location and friendly staff...wish I could have stayed longer however walked the beach and enjoyed the spacious lodging for my time in La Jolla. Great spot for families and those planning to cook while traveling.
- David (10/5): - Great time!
- Beatriz (9/5): Perfecto para quedarte cerca de la playa - La localización y que la habitación estaba muy bien equipada sobretodo la cocina. Aunque no hay aire acondicionado los ventiladores funcionaban muy bien y no pasamos calor Es un poco antiguo

- Heather (10/5): - Loved the vintage Cali vibe this hotel has. Super friendly staff, and great proximity to beach.
- klaus (9/5): - Super Lage, nicht weit zum Strand.
Schöne Anlage mit Pool.
Sehr zuvorkommende, hilfsbereite und freundliche Dame am Empfang. Gefallen hat es uns sehr gut, die Küche ist allerdings schon in die Jahre gekommen, ist aber alles vorhanden was man braucht (bis auf Spülmaschine ;-)).
- Francisca (10/5): - Rooms were spacious. No air-conditioning
- Johannes (5/5): Inakzeptabel für dieses Preisniveau - Die Lage war super - Preisleistung:
satter Preis dafür, dass weder Frühstück, Klimaanlage noch ein Parkplatz dazu gehört
- Personal:
Check in ist ab 16:00 Uhr
Wir sind um 17 Uhr angekommen
- Rezeption geschlossen, niemand da
- auf die Booking.com Nachricht kam eine Antwort Email, dass diese Email nicht mehr existiert
- das Telefon ausen an der Rezeption zum Anrufen für den Checkin ohne Rezeption -> ohne Funktion
- Die Nummer, die wie erwähnt ausgeschrieben war, die wir dann teuer über einen Auslandsanruf versucht haben anzurufen war über eine halbe Stunde lang nicht besetzt…
- Zufällig lief uns dann die Putzfrau über den Weg die uns aufmachen konnte
Für 3 Personen gebucht
Nur für 2 Personen Betten und Handtücher vorbereitet
Sauberkeit:
Schimmelansätze im Bad
- Daniel (8/5): Nice location, walk to the beach and restaurants. - Location, right in the village at the Shores. Couldn’t work the TV to just play cable.
- Roger (8/5): Great location not to have to drive everywhere, staff were very friendly and helpful - Absolutely incredible location A little out dated
- Ellis (10/5): - We arrived early and the staff could not have been nicer about getting our room ready asap for us. So kind and gracious! They gave us a huge 2-bedroom apartment with brand new carpeting and freshly washed comforters. Such nice people. Location walkable to restaurant strip, bars and beach. Overall very quiet and safe residential neighborhood. Wonderful stay!
- eric (8/5): -
- Jennifer (10/5): - Staff have been absolutely great! So kind and helpful.
- Inesa (8/5): -
- Phoebe (5/5): A boiling hot room in a good location. - Room 80 (2 double bedroom apartment) was a good size. • So hot!! 1 fan isn’t enough to cool down these rooms. Temp on visit was 18 degrees and the rooms were sweltering.
• Automatic light in hallway (see photo) was extremity bright and couldn’t be turned off. Awful when going between bedrooms and bathroom. Kept our daughter awake.
• stairs were okay for us but one to be aware of - narrow and steep, 3 floors.
- billie (10/5): - Beach is a 5 min walk
- Isabelle (8/5): logement bien situé mais attention au canapé lit très inconfortable - La plage était à 5 mn à pied, la chambre très bien, pensez à changer le matelas du canapé car ce n'est pas digne d'un canapé lit. canapé lit inconfortable, on sentait les ressorts
- Serena (10/5): Ottima soluzione a due passi da mare a la Jolla Shores - Location fantastica, comoda, appartamento ampio, piscina, lavanderia e possibilità di prendere le seggioline da spiaggia. Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo Tutto ottimo.
- Bartocci (9/5): Lovely little apartment/hotel complex in great location - Lovely little apartments/hotel in an unbeatable location, 5 min walking from La Jolla shores beach, in a quiet neighborhood. Staff very accommodating, lovely little pool and outdoor area where we barbecued and ate for 2 nights. The apartment was very clean, a bit basic but had all we needed. It was extremely hot inside and even with windows open we could not cook it down, even if outside at night it was cool. I think air conditioning would be best. Just some small fixes would have made it perfect, we did not have time to tell the management: ceiling fan in room was broken, there were floor fans but extremely noisy; the pull out sofa was quite uncomfortable because it was tilted. My 10 year old son slept in it and kept on sliding down, an adult could not have slept in it. Other than that excellent stay in wonderful location would stay again. As stated above small things that could have been easily fixed.
- Lyudmila (10/5): My family likes to stay in this hotel! - Quiet N/a
- Kees (8/5): - Locatie, dichtbij het strand . Door het hek eromheen was zwembad beetje ongezellige plek. Slaapbank was wel erg klein.
- chris (10/5): - Lisa was extremely friendly and went beyond to make you feel welcomed. Great location, older building, however
The units are updated.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - As a family of four, we enjoying staying here as it is close to the beach and restaurants. Team is always friendly, and it is nice to have the amenities of an extended stay property.
- Shirley (8/5): - The place was nice but it was hot- no AC!
- Melissa (10/5): - This property is a gem!! Close proximity to the beach, dining, coffee shops, dessert spots! Loved the pool, the apartment style rooms and the ease of parking… and early check in. Couldn’t have been better!
- MOULLE (7/5): - La proximité avec la plage
Le logement était propre la moquette également ce qui est agréable
La piscine propre Nous n’avions pas de micro ondes nous avons envoyé un mail pour en obtenir il nous on répondu qu’il nous le fournirez le lendemain mais nous n’avons rien eu
Pas assez d’oreillés quand on utilise le canapé lit
La réception souvent fermé
Pas de Clim dans le logement c’est supportable mais par moment elle serait la bienvenue
Également ça serait bien d’avertir les clients qu’il y a de quoi à disposition pour aller à la plage (parasol, jouet enfants, …) nous l’avons découvert au moment de partir
- Jill (10/5): - Clean, great location, consistent with pictures. Lovely staff. Great air flow. Easy street parking in the area. Close to beach and restaurants.
- Mariya (10/5): Thank you, it was a great staying -
- Jane (10/5): We will be back. The location is amazing. Pool is heated. No need for a car. Can easily walk to beach, restaurants and - Location No air conditioning. Needed stronger fans and more of them. Vertical blinds date the place.
- Andreas (8/5): Tolle Unterkunft in super Lage - Tolle Lage!, Pool, Größe der Unterkunft Klappsofa relativ unbequem, schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen
- Erin (5/5): - location and price no a/c in one of the 2 rooms that we reserved. That should have been disclosed at booking which I did well in advance. Its not that the a/c didn't work, the room did not have a/c but the 2nd room did. Again should have been disclosed. It was June in SoCal...its hot.
- Maria (2/5): Are you ready to risk losing lots of money? - It could have been a great place: great location, big double-room suite, just some minor repairments (doors, blinds, etc), but… The hotel charged us twice plus a one-night deposit extra. When we told them about it, they charged us a 3rd (!) time instead of reimbursement. It’s almost a week since, and the hotel still owes us around 1000 USD. No response from the management since…
- Teresa (10/5): - A beautiful room.
- HEE HO (7/5): -
- Verified traveler (10/5): Beautiful location and excellent staff - We had an excellent stay here! Our flight was delayed and the staff was very helpful when we got in late. We used the phone number posted by the gate and were able to talk with staff who led us through how to get access to our room.
The room was beautiful and well kept. We were offered beach towels the next day and they even had some beach supplies we could borrow!
The pool was clean and heated to the perfect temperature.
The hotel was quiet and serene after 8 which made for perfect rest and relaxation. We look forward to staying here again!
- Noemi (10/5): -
- yolanda (6/5): - check in office was to close at 5pm i got there 440 no one there! There was a check in number no answer for 15-20 mins
- Lindsey (10/5): Quiet, relaxing, 5 min walk to beach - beautiful room with view of beach club - Love the location. Very quiet neighborhood. 5 min walk to beach and restaurants So quiet, that I worried my kids would upset the neighbors but no complaints I know of. Very relaxing complex
- Maria (8/5): - Loved our stay. It was easy to get our keys during off hours and the staff was friendly. The location was great although parking can be quite difficult, even if u reserve for one.
