4/10 Poor

"The location is genuinely beautiful and there are pocket views of the Pacific — I’ll give it that. But the reality of staying here didn’t match the marketing. There is a photo of a pool on Google that is completely misleading — there is no pool. I’ve already submitted a correction to Google to have it removed, but future guests should know before they book. The noise — both street and interior — was a significant and persistent issue throughout my stay. It was loud enough that the hotel thoughtfully provides earplugs in the room, which tells you everything you need to know. For anyone who values rest and quiet, this is not the place. Service was consistently transactional at best. The warmth that other reviewers mention was not my experience. At Birdseye rooftop I waited approximately seven minutes without being acknowledged, and general interactions with staff throughout my stay felt perfunctory rather than welcoming. The concept is charming and the location is prime La Jolla. But future guests should go in with carefully managed expectations — particularly around noise and the accuracy of what’s advertised."

"i need a bigger room so I got the terrace ocean view with two bedroom 2 bathrooms. i already knew that the room was outdated which was completely fine. I was definitely mislead because no where in the pictures did it say my room was 2 levels otherwise i would have never booked it with 2 kids under 2, huge hazard, my room had 4 levels of stairs to separate the two bedrooms. The unit had no ac throughout only ac in the 2 bedrooms; we were hot throughout the stay. There was no trashcan upstairs so we had to place our trash into a neat pile, even after i asked for one they never brought one. The description said stair access only which means stairs only to get to the room which was expected. That is a whole other story. The room is so far from the main lobby you have to get into the car and drive all the way around the block into a a tiny parking lot. To get to the beach you have to walk a good 10 minutes of stairs, going down is easy but going up forget it. The hotel in under renovation so my ocean view so when i walked out to the balcony it was to a huge covered construction building. which isn’t going to be complete for another few years by the way. There was also a wedding going on Friday and it’s my view from my balcony until 10pm. The only reason i didn’t put 1 star was because the room we chose was because we walked to all the restaurants which were all on prospect street where are room was and it was easy to communicate with the front desk"

6/10 Okay

"Good: Excellent vacation spot, literally right on the ocean. The hotel provides and sets up everything you need for a day on their private beach - chairs, umbrellas, towels, tables etc. Food and drink service is available on the beach as well. Beach staff was very friendly and responsive, and didn't expect tips (for non-food services). Hotel is cashless - everything is charged to your room. Room has a kitchen with plates, utensils etc. Parking is included and plentiful. Common areas were recently updated. Unknown: We didn't make use of services like massage or tennis courts. Bad: Rooms are outdated. Our room, like others', smelled musky and unpleasant. Room quality is an $80/night motel. Two spiders in it too. The beach furniture, also old and worn, are stacked right ON the beach by the hotel. VERY ugly, and hiding the view of the ocean. They could be placed on the side. The umbrellas look cheap and ugly. The first floor rooms are almost uniformly without privacy, due to how the hotel is situated - you'll either be facing the parking lot (like we did) or the beach, with people constantly walking by. If you care about privacy and want to be able to have the blinds open, you'd need a second floor room or stay elsewhere. The restaurant waiters were, with one exception, inattentive and neglectful, and there were hardly any guests there. It felt like they (except one) were bothered by us being there. Club members seem prioritized over guests. Not sure we'd return."

6/10 Okay

"The view and pool was the best part of the house and we were able to fit our entire family. Great location for sure, easily accessible. However, it looks like the house has been partially renovated but there needs to be a lot of work done. Pictures do not accurately represent the house. The front step was broken, outdoor furniture needed to be updated, and the kitchen was not well equipped given the size of the home. Overall the house needs a lot of TLC but was fine for a large group. Probably would not stay again."
