I don’t know how I ended up paying nearly $800 for this poorly maintained cheap motel room. The bathroom is for tiny people, the elevator looks like it’s about to break and the ceiling of the hallway is falling apart. The only positive thing about this place is the location. Definitely not worth the price tag

The pictures are very misleading. I thought I was reserving a remodeled room at La Jolla Cove Suites and I was booked at the Terrace. The room was dirty, the toilet rocked when you sat on it, and furniture was old and worn. Also , there was a crazy amount of stairs to climb to get to our room. In addition, there was also a roof top wedding right across from our room. We were not told of the event and music played loudly until 10:30 pm. The view was great and it was right across the street from the beach, but I definitely won’t stay there again.

The rooms did not look like the pictures at all, were musty and dirty.

This hotel is divided into new and old buildings, so confirmation is required when booking. Generally speaking, new buildings are more expensive and are independently called "The Pines". I booked an old building, but a full sea view room. Check-in time is 4pm and I arrived at 10:30am. There was a vacant room on the first floor of their new building. Considering that my luggage was relatively heavy, I chose the first floor of the new building. You can see a little bit of the sea view😁. The room is newly renovated, clean and spacious. Due to the rain, the waves were a bit loud at night. The hotel is in a great location and there is a cafe on the first floor of the hotel. (Flower umbrellas are only top-stroke, so they are not friendly to girls with long hair who don’t want to wash their hair).

The room is very small, the window is in the corridor, there is a door in the room connecting to another room, accidentally opened and walked into someone else's room. There is not even a table in the room. The price is more expensive than a 5-star hotel, just for the beach. The worst stay.

A very shabby hotel with very poor sound insulation. The hotel is located opposite the beach, but the sea water is very smelly. The hotel overall is the same as a motel. You can stay in DT star hotels at the same price, but I don’t recommend staying there.

Limpieza que deja un poco que desear, me encontré un pañuelo usado en el suelo. Ubicación perfecta.
