La Jolla Riviera Inn

Initially I was happy with my interactions with the management. I had called two days before to ask if I could charge the room on a different card. The front desk said “of course”. When I arrived, I reminded her that I wanted to switch the card which meant she would have to credit the deposit on the original card and charge the whole amount to the new card. She said it was no problem. Then she told me to get a parking spot it would be $15. I said yes, but then she said someone e else was in my spot but would be leaving soon (was just unloading). This was fine as I had to drop off some stuff at the beach. When I came back the car was still in my paid spot so I called and the front desk told me to go find parking on the street until they left. I was planning on parking and leaving for the rest of the day. I don’t know why she didn’t call them to ask them to move their car? I’ve been asked for my money back for the spot and parked on the street.. I had two rooms and we arrived at 2pm with check in at 4pm. I called earlier in the day and she said the rooms would be ready at 2pm. One was ready and she said the other would be ready in 30 mins. Totally fine since we were there early. However if you say the room will be ready in 30 mins. We should be able to count on it. We saw the people who were cleaning taking a break. They did not come back to clean u til after 3pm. The room wasn’t ready until 4pm. The next day when I checked out, I asked again about switching the card and charging the full amount to the new card. Again, she said no problem. I don’t get a copy of a receipt or invoice. Today I checked my card and they only charged my new card the tax and fees. And when I called they had already closed out the ticket and could not charge my new card the full amount. The woman who helped me today was very helpful.

Nice, comfortable property. Spacious room, relaxing with La Jolla Shores beach not far away, plus local boutiques and surf shops 🙌

Comfortable and well located motel Very comfortable 60’s style motel with large rooms - small apartments really - located a little more than a block from the bustling village. Tranquil location, accommodating manager and easy on-street parking. I would definitely stay here sgain

Absolute gem of a property that is just steps away from the beach! Highly recommend!

Great location, very friendly staff, all round excellent experience!
