The staff was fantastic and very accommodating. The location is so central to La Jolla and makes for an excellent base of operations when exploring the greater San Diego area. The staff is also super knowledgeable about the area and willingly makes recommendations for restaurants, beaches, and things to do. Everything seemed well kept.
