The room was cleaned daily and done fine. There was no hairdryer and we did have to ask for a microwave. The gym was mediocre at best. There is no onsite parking and the hotel will charge you $45 a day to park. We were able to find parking on nearby streets. They do charge a resort fee of $40 a day to stay on top of what you’ve already paid for your stay. The place is under construction and there was no pool to use along with construction work starting at 7am and going the entire day. You are given beach towels, umbrella and chairs on the beach (which was nice). But again the construction noise is constant.

Room had a terrible musty smell—even running the A/C window unit nonstop did not help. Was charged $40 daily resort fee even though pool and hot tub were out of service. Half the hotel was closed for renovations. Paid for an oceanfront suite for my birthday and the room looked nothing like the pictures on Expedia. The room needed a total makeover. What a serious disappointment!!

It gets you on the water but not 4 or 5 star resort. Would have been cool if they let you know the facility was under major construction. We made the best of it. Restaurant and bar are spot on. We had a couple of drinks the first night in the bar and breakfast down stairs on our way out. Location is great away from the big crowds but everything is walking distance. Booked it as we were driving down south for a couple of days. We would stay again once construction is done.

La Jolla Shores was the best place to stay and enjoy the beach without crowds, sand or carrying a bunch of stuff to the beach. Open your patio door and you are there. Beach and waves in front of you. Room is spotless, crisp sheets, supportive mattress. Best customer service I’ve ever experienced before, during and after leaving the property. Breakfast on the beach - the best French toast of my life - was like a dream. There is a reason this place has remained as a staple for well heeled travelers. It is simply the best.
