Location, location, location!
Right in the heart of the village of La Jolla. Clean, friendly and nice size rooms. No restaurant on-site, but plenty of options within walking distance. Nice beds and bedding. Complimentary coffee and tea in lobby and public lounge. Parking is available on-site for $20 per day.

Most was good.
Bed seemed a bit short and I"m only 5' 10"
Warn persons to look over how the rooms work before doing much.
AC control, lights, tea/coffee maker, lights in bathroom.
TV control
These can differ a lot from hotel to hotel..
"Lounge" was too far from most of the rooms and very awkward to go there. See other comments of mine.
