They d'nt have coffee machine in the room nor at the lobby..very badservice...the furnishing looks modern, but a closer look reveals the bad design. i found some unused wood planks. This place needs major cleanup.
I booked this hotel through Priceline so I only paid $100 per night... even that was too much! The rooms were okay. The furnishings were pretty shabby (it was like visiting a grandmother's house). We stayed on the 6th floor and it was so noisy. I could hear every footstep around me and the sliding glass doors to the adjacent rooms sounded ...

we stayed at la jolla hotel in oct. 2006 when we first arrived they had given our room away.. i had made reservations 3 months in advance.. so that night they upgraded us after 1-1/2 hours of waiting... but didnt know if they would have a room for us the next 3 nights... so we had to wait all day to find out... they did have a room the next day.. ...

The room was very spacious and comfortable. It was within walking distance to the beach and the restaurant had great food for dinner. We had a wonderful view of the ocean. Only complaint was the sheets were like sandpaper. T & J
We stayed at the Hotel La Jolla for 11 nights in July/Aug 2005.
