nice rooms, lots of parking. best price in la jolla. oh yeah there no smoking and pets for all the rooms.

A few years ago we turned up at 3am to the sands of La Jolla. The management were welcoming. The beds were comfortable and price was unbeatable. We have stayed at 5 star hotels and private resorts. We enjoyed our experience so much that we are going back tomorrow and staying for the weekend. When calling, the staff had a... More

We checked out quite a few hotels in this La Jolla area and most were expensive. As we were travelling on a budget for 3 weeks , we were looking for value. The rooms were average sized, but were bright and had balconies. Decor was somewhat dated, but clean. There was no breakfast available at this hotel and staff were... More

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by this budget motel in LaJolla. I was expecting worse and I actually got better. There was cable TV, a microwave and fridge, the beds were very comfortable, there were products for bathing and shampooing. The room seemed quite clean overall. I only stayed for one night but it was very satisfactory... More

He looked in the mirror and had red swollen bumps on his back. They told management and checked out of the hote. The staff at the hotel went to the room and... More

Rooms are clean and updated. The location is just 1 block for the ocean (but a few more blocks if you want to go to the beach) in beautiful, residential BirdRock. The road can get a bit noisy but with the door closed to the balcony its perfectly quiet for sleeping. I think this place is a great value for... More

Every time we go to California, we always stay at the Sands of La Jolla. Now, I know that the major gripe for this place is the lack of A/C, which yeah, can be a pain in the butt. Honestly though, if you plan on staying in the hotel the ENTIRE time when it's a blistering 110 degrees outside, try... More
