Yes but we were charged more than the final quote on Travelocity and when I asked for them to correct my bill she said it was correct what was quoted on Travelocity has incorrect taxes. Also we were one flight up from the lobby and they do not have an elevator? The staff immediately asked to help us with our bags when they saw we are in our late 70s.

Clean rooms. Very friendly and accommodating front desk staff. Excellent location. Lots of dinning options. Our only gripe was the fact that housecleaning didn’t refill shampoo, shower gels and tissue in the bathroom. We had to ask for refill. Also, we had to ask front desk for extra towels despite requesting housecleaning to leave extra towels when they were cleaning the room.

Great Views, But

The hotel is really nice overall with amazing views of the ocean, and the rooftop restaurant food was good, offering the same amazing views. Room needed a complete remodel and to be deodorized. The musty smell was awful.

Awesome location.

Cool boutique. Staff was excellent Restaurant that is connected was right above our room. Extremely loud as chairs and tables get moved around well into the night. Easily correctible with outdoor carpet. We went to the connected restaurant, waited forever and never got served. Went somewhere else.

Make sure to check your credit card statement

Room was beautiful. Easy to walk to beach. Some random charge to credit card when we checked out. Disputed and it was removed, but an unnecessary hassle.

Best La Jolla Location!

Location could not be better: within walking distance to multiple restaurants, cafe's, gelato etc. One of the best restaurants is the hotel's own Birdseye. Fantastic views, excellent food and drinks. Walk to the water, the coves, sea lions, shopping. Staff was superb. Only "negative" is there is traffic noise in the room but after the first night we paid no attention to it.

If you are unfortunate enough to get a room under the rooftop restaurant, you will not get any sleep whatsoever. It was so incredibly loud, even with a sound machine and earplugs. We could not fall asleep until the restaurant had closed and cleaned up for the day and woke up to the restaurant opening up.

We booked a queen room, we were given a room with a double bed. The room had no window except for onto a stairway to the deck. It was so loud until 11pm with drinking and lots of loud music and noise. The room looked like a utility closet with no space to even open a suitcase. No hanging space only a couple of drawers. They refused to refund our money and we still moved next door. Room 305 should never be rented.
