Great faility and staff was exceptional
4.0 / 10.0
proximity to the sea; size of the apartment; kitchen included
paid full view but for only partial sea view; very dirty apartment, with smelly carpet; bare feet became black instantly; very dusty. Not convenient for small kids due to stairs; ok breakfast; staff does not speak fluent English, which creates communication issues. Parking is $30 per day, and it is just a steep blind slot next to the apartment, which is very difficult to get outof safely due to a lack of full vision of the street

Location location! Wake up to the sound of gulls and sea lions. La Jolla restaurants are a short walk away. Also a very nice breakfast to start your day. Friendly staff.
Liked everything. We had reserved a hotel parking spot but if not it would have been difficult to find.

We loved the location (close to restaurants and great paths and beaches to walk), the bed was very comfortable and bedding was incredibly soft, and the views from the living room/balcony were amazing. We loved hearing the constant crashing of the ocean waves. We loved the convenience of the breakfast and the style and views of the public areas, and the free cookies, water, pop, coffee and beach towels!
We loved this property and will definitely return.

Incredible location! Beautiful buildings, landscapes, outdoor seating areas, rooftop outdoor lounge for perfect sunsets! Close to great shops and restaurants. Literally across the street from the ocean. Staff was professional and service focused!
Really didn’t dislike anything.

I like the uniqueness of each room, the Balinese decor, the overall cleanliness, the breakfast… The coffee! And the friendliness of the staff.. I also liked the gas fireplace.
The location was also very good for us as we were visiting relatives. We love walking on the beach and along the ocean walk. Parking was also available for free.
The couch was not exceptionally comfortable. But we adapted to that. We could’ve also used a few more dishes and silverware in the kitchen, but, that wasn’t a big deal.

The property was super clean with an exceptionally friendly staff. Pantai Inn is located right across the street from the ocean walkway. It’s located a short distance uphill from the restaurants. The roof top terrace was a lovely spot to watch the sunset. There was also nice outside area at street level that was quiet and relaxing. I would definitely stay again.

The location was nice
The water pressure in the shower was awful! The shower makes a horrible noise and vibrates when you turn on the water. This was for our room and I can hear others. Can’t sleep cause the noise from the shower woke me up all hours of the night.When u shower water gets all over the floor. The toilet is loose and rocks a lot. Room service never came, I went down stairs to ask for towels and was told they would bring them right up, hours went by and nothing. Overall it’s a beautiful location but room 202 definitely needs upgrades and fixing . Plumbing is a major issue with this place.

My room has a balcony with an ocean view, and the scenery is beautiful. The hotel is very close to La Jolla Cove, with plenty of dining options nearby. A very good choice overall.

I stayed at Pantai for a solo scuba trip and would definitely stay here again. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, and the breakfast was nice. I love that my suite had its own bedroom, so it was more like a small apartment than a hotel room. It felt very warm and homey. My room also had a terrace to enjoy the evening sunsets and mornings with coffee. Having all that space made it easy to organize all of my gear with a small dining table for eating and computer work.
This is kind of a silly thing, but there is a massive fountain at the entrance to the hotel, and my room was right next to it. It's pretty loud and drowned out the sound of the ocean, which was why I booked a beachfront hotel. I'd still stay here again!

Oceanside location cannot be beat. Customer service - A+. Breakfast was good, complimentary water, soft drinks and cookies. Nice amenities in room: robes, bathroom supplies. Smart TVs. Stocked kitchenette.
The room is a bit run down with old carpet, musty odor, very small bathroom and scuffed furniture. But the 5 star amenities and location made up for it. I would stay here again.

The location is great and the breakfast was generous with a good variety of food. The outdoor areas are nice.
Our room had a bad smell, kind of musty/damp and needed some fresh air. Unfortunately there were no opening windows so we opened the door sometimes.

The location was amazing. Right across from the hotel there was a beautiful beach, and in the mornings you could see the ocean, the rainbow, and the gentle waves while hearing the sound of the seagulls.
The breakfast was good, but it could have been more complete.

Entrance door was too tight to open even sliding door for the room. Bathroom was too small. No toothbrush. There are 3 big TV but not working.

Wonderful location to be in La Jolla near all the restaurants and shopping and right next to the beach/ocean.
Bathroom was not my favorite. Massive calcium deposits on valves.
10.0 / 10.0
Wonderful getaway, location, and breakfast. Enjoy waking up to ocean view and sitting on balcony.
I did not like that the water feature/ pond waterfall did not turn off at night. I'd rather just listen to the ocean waves at night.

Location was amazing! Staff was incredibly friendly. Room was very clean. The complimentary breakfast was nice.
While the room was clean, it was definitely dated and did not have all of the appliances listed in the kitchen. Bed was just ok. Parking was tight.

It was beautiful and in a great location! The free water and sodas and cookies were nice.
I was in room 224 and the carpet in the bedroom had a slight sour smell, but I got used to it. The kitchen flooring was great and I recommend that you put that in the bedroom too.

Great location across the street from the beach access! Easy walk to local restaurants and the La Jolla Cove. The room is very clean and they have an excellent breakfast on a beautiful patio. Plenty of complimentary drinks anytime you want one. Staff are very friendly and one thoughtful gentleman filled my water bottle with ice and water before I had head out on a 2+ hour drive back to LA. He is a saint!
Our room was on the ground level next to the entry door for the building. So every time someone had to unlock that door it sounded like they were entering our room. Otherwise, mostly a quiet location.

Loved the location!
We were in a downstairs apartment- the neighbor upstairs was very present in our lives. Very little sound proofing. Breakfast very best western level.

The location of Pan Thai was across the beach in La Jolla and down the hill from all the restaurants and shops. Also a short drive from Torrey Pines as well as Pacific and mission beaches.
Here’s the thing: we had three incidents with homeless. The First was waking up and finding a transient, obviously under the influence laying on our front patio couch. The manager quickly got him to leave. Later, this same person was seen standing in the street in front of our room, smoking a cigarette and staring through our window. The next night, the transient took two of the cushions from the patio furniture and went next-door took one or more other cushions and disappeared down to the beach. We alerted management again. If that had not happened, we would have given the top rating.

Location was perfect, parking was never an issue, and breakfast was amazing! The spa ambience was nice too, sitting by the fire “pit” at night, and also the rooftop outdoor seating area where we took our own beers and enjoyed the view is the ocean!
The room was not well insulated, so we could hear everything outside. Also, there were no blackout drapes, so it got really bright even with the blinds closed.
