"The hotel is located perfectly across the street from shell beach. Also, plenty of shops/restaurants in walking distance. The breakfast was above average and the grounds were clean. The only complaint I have is the smell of the room. The overwhelming odor smacks you in the face the moment you open the door. Only after opening the windows and doors for 10 minutes does the smell become tolerable. Its a very strong old musty smell. If they could fix this, the stay would be perfect."

Redwood Hollow Cottages

3.5 star property
9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (206)
" Certainly not a luxury resort but doesn’t want to be. My cottage consisted even of 2 huts with a kind of private garden. The second hut was furnished just with a coutch but how cosy…. Situation in La Jolla is perfect. 3 minutes walk to the sea, 5 minutes to restaurants and a supermarket. I recommend it and would come back again if I eber have the chance to visit La Jolla again. "
