This property is very crowded - there is inadequate parking for the guests. We had to park across a boulevard from the hotel. The rooms are small. The breakfast was very good. Too many buildings for the size of the property. Felt like low-income property.

I stayed at the Residence Inn San Diego La Jolla for nine nights and couldn't have been happier. The staff was friendly and very helpful; they even assisted with some unusual request. The room was also very clean. Lastly, if you do choose to stay here don't miss the breakfast!

This about the 4th time I have stayed here and I would thoroughly recommend it. It is particularly useful if you need access to UCSD but it is also so close to the I5 it is easy to get around with a car. The rooms are excellent and well maintained. There is a good selection of food although be prepared... More

Stayed here a few nights on a business trip and it missed on a couple of levels. This property is layout like an apartment complex so it can fit in with the surrounding area of condos. That's great, but the rooms on the second level have stairs going to them, which to me can be a problem for people who... More

I booked a room for spring break and in the middle of the reservation process, it disappeared because someone booked the same type of room faster than me. I decided to act fast and not worry about paying a little more for the penthouse suite for our week long stay. I am so glad as the extra few dollars a... More

This Residence Inn is more like a condo than a hotel. We booked a one bedroom with a loft. The loft had a separate bathroom, a tv and a queen bed. It is a loft and open to below, so I would not recommend it for little kids, but it should be fine for teens. Our bedroom also had a... More

I highly recommend, not only for the wonderful facility but for the best staff ever. I stayed there for 2 months while my husband was in a nearby hospital. The van shuttle drivers became such great friends taking me back and forth to the hospital. Jonathan, Hanbal and Dana were always so thoughtful and caring. The staff made me feel... More

This property is amazing! It is like a mini-apartment complex. The "2 bedroom" loft room we were in was more than enough room for 2 children and 3 adults. It had two bathrooms, a living room area, and a kitchen area with table and chairs. HIGHLY recommend to families and any others looking for a really great place to lay... More
