I didn’t like the dirt build up on the fans. Mold under caulking around the tub. The handle in the tub didn’t function correctly. And the water didn’t drain out of the tub. The circulation in the bathroom could be better. And the couch upholstery needs to be cleaned

I booked this place for the location and it didn’t disappoint. It was also in walking distance to restaurants. The views of the beach beyond awesome

Parking could be included in the price paid, rather than an extra fee.

Location right on the coast road is great. La Jolla is a nice place, there’s good food nearby.

Carpets were pretty dirty and the bathroom floor/ counters were not very clean either. However it was easily wiped clean and the location made it seem unimportant!!!

On this past visit..... a bunch of little kids above our room was quite noisy. Other than that - love it!!

We appreciated the access to the ocean and surrounding places to shop and eat within walking distance. The view from the patio area displays a beautiful place to watch the sunset! This time of year, a seagull has her young on the roof which is entertaining to watch. Early mornings were chilly, but you can hear the seals down by the shore. Scripps In also has beach towels, beach items to borrow, ice machine and a couple of bicycles to ride if you like. A telescope is available during the day to check out the boats out in the ocean. Truely amazing!

Dumb but well- meaning mags types visiting where you had to laugh at his unfunny jokes. AKA, nothing.

Right at the ocean and tide pools, away from the tourists, the PERFECT location! Had a ocean view, fireplace, kitchenette and table, large and confy bed! Best of all was sweet man as host!

Location was great, walking distance from restaurants and to everythin you need!!

A little pricey, but you’re paying down the view!

Gorgeous view of the ocean. Perfect place to stay for a wedding across the street. Nice front desk staff. Nice kitchen for a smaller hotel.

The location was awesome!!

It was a little run down and needed some updates (balcony railing, stained couch, bathroom, broken drawer…)

The location was incredible! We had an ocean view and we walked everywhere.

Parking is an additional $18 per day, and I think they have 4~5 spots in front of the building, and probably another 2~3 spots in the back alley. Also, the rooms are quite old (not to say that they are not clean or anything), so they didn't have enough power outlets as you would expect from other newer hotels. We had no issues, but if you're planning on charging multiple devices, an extension cord with multiple outlets of your own might come in handy.

Location, location, location. This Inn sits right in front of the Wipeout Beach in La Jolla. You just cross the street, and you're right there. We enjoyed our time relaxing out there, and a lot of the restaurants and other viewpoints are within walking distance from there. We weren't lucky enough to get a room with the view of the sunset, but there are other places (including the beach) where you can enjoy the awesome view. They have 14 rooms, and I think only 5~6 rooms would have an unobstructed view of the ocean. They have beach chairs, umbrellas and some kids' toys you can borrow for free. Also some bicycles.

Walls and ceilings paper thin. Can hear conversations and footsteps from all rooms close by. If you stay here try and book room 14. Best room available.

Location was great. Right on the beach and close to all good restaurants. Really nice place to stay. Staff really friendly and accommodating.

The only reason I didn't give exceptional rating in cleanliness is the bathroom tub and tiles showed some mildew, and there was a large stain on the carpet. Breakfast would've been convenient if it were at the hotel, but we just allowed a little bit of extra time to grab a bite before we started our day. There was a vendor with coffee and pastries, but unfortunately, my family has a restricted diet and that didn't work for us.

The location and size of the suite were exceptional. Beds were very comfortable and the living room and kitchen were a good size. It was nice to have a larger fridge than is usually found in a hotel, and the cooktop was nice to have, although we didn't stay long enough to use it. The view of the ocean was fabulous and it was so nice to have the beach towels and chairs provided, with the beach right across the street.. The bikes were also a nice but we didn't have time to use them. Having an extra bathroom sink was a plus for getting ready at the same time. Late check-in was very easy and convenient.

The check out receptionist, an American lady that didn’t even bother to ask about our stay, if everything was well, etc. just rushed to grab the key and say bye.

The view and the location were perfect

The location was great, we loved hearing the ocean from our window, and also enjoyed sitting on the deck/patio. It was also walkable, and we enjoyed some great restaurants that were suggested by the gentleman that checked us in.

Being an older building, handy power points were in short supply, but we easily made do

Fabulous location - the beach is just across the road. You can sit on the balcony and watch the pelicans fly past, the world go by and even a wedding

Dated but that was expected.

The proximity to the ocean.

Would be good to have more facilities- longer opening for reception or more info in advance. We got there at 6.30pm expecting reception to be open but had to call (wait 10 mins) for instructions. Also little tourist info given once did speak to reception.

Great location - can hear the sea

sliver of a view from the room window qualified on description as “sea view”! unstaffed for 6 pm “afterhours” arrival. only phone guidance offered by pleasant person off property who , tho polite , didnt know the property at all , nor staff hours, nor the area and had no recommendations for breakfast.

Superb location

Very spacious room, very good beds, excellent location

A bit of a walk to any restaurants but that was a minor inconvenience.

The room was spacious, airy, well appointed and very comfortable with a nice bathroom. The staff were super friendly and helpful. A delightful small hotel with character in an excellent location in a quiet area with a view of the ocean from the balcony and just steps from the small beach and the La Jolla cove walk. Pelicans, sea lions and seals just minutes away made for a extremely enjoyable stay. A great area with easy access to all the attractions that San Diego has to offer.

The location is perfect and everything is in walking distance. Monika from the front desk was super sweet and gave us great recommendations on things to do! A great place to stay!

Bathroom shower/tub needs to be recalked so that able to be cleaned better and furniture getting a little worn for the price of the rooms (some may need replacement or cleaning?). Really liked everything else about the property. We'd would like to stay in a room with a view next time. Our room didn't have one but being only steps from the ocean made us so happy. Loved stepping out the door for a walk and hearing the ocean surf at night when we were falling asleep.

We loved the location of the property! Wonderful for walks along the coastline and sunrise and sunset watching. We enjoyed some beautiful sunsets while there. Rooms are great size and beds were very comfortable. Nice to have coffee maker in room. The Christmas decorations were so festive and really added to our holiday stay. We look forward to returning soon hopefully!

Location and large room. Hearing the sound of the surf.
