Inn by the Sea earns overwhelmingly positive sentiment, with guests consistently highlighting its prime walkable location in La Jolla, freshly renovated rooms, and warm, accommodating staff. The main friction points are ongoing construction (noted by multiple guests, though most say it didn't disrupt sleep), limited on-site parking, and the absence of a complimentary breakfast at a price point where some feel it should be included. A small number of guests were disappointed by subpar balcony views with no resolution offered.
- Ongoing construction during stays
- Parking limited or difficult
- No complimentary breakfast included for the price
- Some rooms had poor balcony views with no room-change option
- Minor room issues (no plugs near nightstands, bathroom needing update)
“We LOVED being able to order breakfast with a door hanger and receive our delivery from the Cottage in the morning!”
“Really nice renovated rooms right in the heart of La Jolla. Super comfy bed, great bathroom. Staff were lovely too. And good wifi. No complaints!”
“The check-in process was top notch. After a 4+ hour drive the staff worked together to allow us to check-in early… One of the cleanest hotels we have been in.”
“Still under renovation, for the price breakfast should come with the stay.”
