Exceptional
Liked: Renovated rooms, large shower and comfy beds. Every member of staff was so friendly and helpful. Bars, restaurants and stores near by. Bus stop right outside. Short walk to the beach. Free tea, coffee, water and porridge in reception. We parked for free on the street outside.
Disliked: Nothing.

Disappointing and not reflective of...
Liked: The property was in a poor location, almost no lobby and no amenities. The power went out in one of the two rooms. The staff was very pleasant. This was a very disappointing result from booking on bookings.com.
Disliked: The bed was good.

Clean, spacious room near beach
Liked: Well located, close to the beach and only a 25 minute stroll from La Jolla Cove. Rooms spacious & clean. Staff very friendly too!
Disliked: Seal in the shower was faulty so bathroom floor would get very wet / slippery.

Very nice place to stay...
Liked: 5 minute walk to the beach was great. Room was clean but only "maid" up every other day. EVERYONE at the front desk was friendly and accommodating. All of the staff there was wonderful. Hot water was always available with no wait.
