Great location! Walk to the beach, grab bagels at the restaurant on the corner, short Uber to LaJolla playhouse, or just relax at one of the outdoor tables with a glass of wine. On-site parking, beach towels available. Wish we could have stayed a few more days. We would definitely stay here again!!
