Clean, easy to walk to a few restaurants and beach. Rooms are very basic. Nice and clean. Could maybe use some wall pictures and definitely at least one full length mirror. Would be nice to have a coffee maker, but not a necessity. Would stay again and would recommend.

The Sands of La Jolla is a great, very clean, very friendly hotel. My complaint was with others who stayed there were so inconsiderate. I was on the 2nd floor end and the 3rd floor people above were so noisy, kids jumping around, dropping heavy things on the floor, just being disrespectful to all neighbors until late at night. Only room complaint was the shower head hose was leaking pretty bad. The hotel itself and staff were great.

Staff was amazing! Rooms were very clean. The area is quiet. Nice to take a stroll to grab coffee, a bite to eat or enjoy the beautiful beach. Will definitely stay here again.

We had a great stay here. The hotel is nicely renovated and very clean. The beds were extremely comfortable and the hotel is just a short walk to the ocean.

Closely located to downtown La Jolla but far enough to avoid downtown traffic. Small, quiet, quaint hotel, spacious room, nice standing shower
