The staff of the hotel was absolutely top notch. Great location. Being a historic hotel you get the good and bad of that. Great location, great aesthetic, along with small rooms and other issues that come with older buildings. Worth the stay for a weekend in La Jolla.

The usual $6 water and “resort” fee, no mini-bar, and a long, hard walk to the remote rooms, Still, one of the most pleasant, relaxing properties in the country. A classic old school La Jolla hotel.
