We stayed at the Best Western Inn By the Sea from May 9 - 15. We were in town for my best friend's weddding and all of the festivities were taking place within walking distance of the hotel, so it was perfect! The rooms are average (it's a Best Western!), but very clean and well taken care of. We had... More

Very mediocre hotel but location is great. No air conditioning, horrible pillows, noisy. Unimpressive continental breakfast. Plan on breakfast elsewhere. No remote control for TV and they just didn't care or try to find us one.

I stayed one night at this hotel in March. The location is fantastic, right in the center of La Jolla and walkable to everything. However, despite the refreshed lobby, the corridors and room were pretty dated and dismal. The toiletries look like they were pulled out of storage from the 70's. Our room had an odd smell, I think it... More

I stayed here from Feb. 24-29. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and was very impressed with the reception staff who greeted me upon arrival and the great location. I felt very much at home here and felt that all my needs were met. The amazing thing with this hotel is that my unusual requests were met. This is the first... More

Hotel is conveniently located in downtown La Jolla. Benefits include ability to walk to nice shops, beach (cove), good selections for complimentary continental breakfast, fruit and coffee in the afternoon in the lobby. Lobby was renovated in the past 2 years. Concerns include the lack of A/C when the weather is warmer sooner than expected, side of the building facing... More

This did not seem to match with the quality of the rest of the... More
