Room outdated, leaky bathroom faucet, heater didn't turn on. But the WORST problem was the noise. Drilling noise outside starting at 6am, TV noise next door around 7:30am.

Loved staying here! Really enjoyed the spacious room with a living and kitchen area as well as the salt water pool. Very short walk to the La Jolla beach and nearby shops and dining. The bed wasn’t super comfortable but was okay for a short stay.
