Extras include breakfast daily-decent hot or cold selections, three nights happy hour with food served, soda at any time, newspapers, etc. They also had a shuttle although we found it hard... More

I was in town for a meeting and was very pleased with this hotel. The room was like a mini apartment fully equipped with a full kitchen, living room ect. Had to pay $14 for parking which I found strange since the room fee typically allows you to park in their lot. Would def. suggest this place to anyone staying... More

My friend and I arrived on Amtrak and departed from the airport, so we reached this hotel by Supershuttle for $16 per person, not bad. We were in town one night to attend a concert at the University of California San Diego of the La Jolla SYmphony and Chorus, a wonderful event. I found that this hotel was within walking... More

First stay at this property and would stay here again. Lots of value for the money; comfortable bed, acceptable bathroom and very functional kitchen. Front desk staff were excellent; always cordial and accommodating; Morgan was outstanding, and Austin was very helpful. Breakfast is not bad, but very crowded with guests jamming the buffet area each am. Location is excellent for... More

Stayed here recently on a quick overnight business trip and I really enjoyed the property. It is unique as it looks like an apartment/condo complex that has been converted. I just had a studio king room ($154/night) but it was quite large. There was a living room area with a couch, chair and nice size TV. The kitchen had a... More

We stay there every time we visit our son in UCSD. Location is great and good value for the price. Rooms are spacious and clean. Awesome hiking trails nearby, plenty of restaurants, and close to downtown La Jolla.

THis is the second time we stayed here. It is great value and awesome service and staff. We loved the breakfast and the amenities at the hotel are worth booking here. I love the fact that I can drop off my shopping list and the groceries will be delivered and put in my refrigerator!

This property is very crowded - there is inadequate parking for the guests. We had to park across a boulevard from the hotel. The rooms are small. The breakfast was very good. Too many buildings for the size of the property. Felt like low-income property.

I stayed at the Residence Inn San Diego La Jolla for nine nights and couldn't have been happier. The staff was friendly and very helpful; they even assisted with some unusual request. The room was also very clean. Lastly, if you do choose to stay here don't miss the breakfast!
