The Hotel was centrally located to places, quiet safe area, comfy accomodations, clean, great lobby cofee, nice small pool with jacuzzi after your days activities. Also at Hilton Next door $5 breakfast. Overall this hotel was perfect for what my plans were. Also close to La Jolla, DelMar Beach and my favorite! Torrey Pines State Beach 😍

What I liked the very most about the stay was the quality of staff at the restaurant in the lobby area. The service was the absolute best!!!

Better than I expected

Shared a large king bed with my buddy (so no one slept on the floor) bathroom nice and huge. Room was over all impressive in nice area in La Jolla. Bar downstairs in the lobby made it convenient to get drinks and chill by the pool and jacuzzi. Definitely recommend staying here if you're in La Jolla

Nice hotel in convenient location

Pros: Close to UCSD medical campus, Sea World, San Diego airport. Good food, nice bar, friendly staff, decent complimentary wifi.
Cons: The parking lot is small, and the pantry could use healthier breakfast options such as non-sugar cereal and granola bars, yogurt, juice, etc.
Location: This hotel isn't particularly close to tourist-y things. But it's in a good location if you are visiting UCSD medical campus.
Nice two-night stay at this hotel. They provide special touches such as ice water and coffee in the lobby, afternoon cookies, and a 24/7 food pantry in case you need something quick or early/late in the day. The staff were super friendly as well.
