A touch of elegance in the heart of La Jolla
Everything was very good. I did not try the 910 restaurant this stay but it is usually very good too. They have a small bar within the restaurant that is very clean, inviting and cordial. Many of the rooms have recently been upgraded to modern standards. This makes the stay so much more pleasant. i.e. the bathrooms are much brighter and up to date as one would expect in a higher end hotel. I would give five stars this time around except for the fact that the costs have gone up so much lately. I guess one can expect this in most hotels these days. My advice is to pre-check all of the fees before you book so that you know what you are getting yourselves into.
