Scripps Inn April 2025 Stay

This place was ideal. Overlooking Wedding Point, this spot was close to the village and beach. You could hear the waves crash from our room. Room was well appointed and recently renovated. Great deck area with comfortable seating to enjoy the view. Will stay there again.

Everything was so easy! I arrived after the office had closed and had received a text with easy to follow instructions! The room was spacious and really nicely appointed with a beach theme/colors! The staff was incredibly kind, responsive be and helpful! You cannot beat the location as it is right across from a walking path along the gorgeous coastline in La Jolla! I would highly recommend this Inn!!!

Views! Sound! Convince!

The view was amazing. Loved the view! Loved being so close to the ocean. Loved the sound of the waves. Loved the location. Loved walking distance from so much. Loved morning coffee with a view. I can’t say enough about the location because I love the beach and walking. The room itself was not impressive.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my stay in this charming hotel. Customer service was top notch and so accommodating. My complementary upgraded room was so nice and comfortable with amazing oceanfront views and even a fireplace. This is definitely my new go to hotel when visiting La Jolla.

Our stay here was enjoyable. Our room offered a small refrigerator, microwave, a small kitchen table and chairs, a full size sofa and chair. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was spacious and stocked with all we needed. Parking availble for guests only, additonal parking is available on the street. A furnished sun deck was available and comfortable to gather at. The beach is just across the street. The sunsets were incredible. Visitors lined the sidewalk, across the street, just to take in the view at sundown. The staff was very accommodating, very friendly. We will definitely return.

The hotel is in a GREAT location and the view from the common area looking over the ocean is gorgeous. The rooms themselves are clean but dated. Front desk has limited hours so if you need anything, you need to get to them early before they leave for the day. If you don't need modern conveniences, it is a very nice place to stay.

Great Location

Great location. All rooms have ocean view. Rooms not as "trendy" or "modern" in terms of style or decoras some boutique hotels, however, I prefer this type of accommodation where you park right by the room and are in and out easily. no dealing with valet. Front desk was friendly. Room was clean. No issues, would stay again.

Fantastic location. Nice clean room, comfortable bed, plenty of storage, and very friendly staff. My only (minor), complaint is that the electrical outlets are so worn that plugs for phones, etc., nearly fall out. Until they get replaced, a power strip plugged into one of the less-worn outlets is pretty helpful.

Nice place, but could use some updating

We were placed in room #4. Ok room, clean and spacious for a couple. Well-decorated. Almost no ocean view, but this was advertised as "courtyard view" so we weren't expecting anything great. There were no outlets by the bed. Only outlets were in the bathroom and the dining area. Pull out bed was old and completely worn out, needs to be replaced. This means anyone aside from those sleeping in the king bed are not going to be comfortable. Property has several parking spots but parking is not free; do you really need to charge customers an extra $22/day?

The hotel located by the La hoya beach road had an amazing location first and foremost. Additionally, the condition of Room 4 was much cozier and cleaner than what I had seen in the pictures, and I felt welcomed. Even though there was no one at the front desk during check-in, there were no difficulties in using the hotel due to prior text messages. Despite accidentally breaking a wine cup, they were cool about it and kindly at the reception during check-out, which was impressive. If I visit La hoya again, I will definitely use this hotel again!
