“My boyfriend and I decided to stay at a B&B for the first time and we could not have had a better experience. The room was spotless and clean, the bed was extremely comfortable, the breakfast was absolutely delicious. We also enjoyed having a private balcony connected to our room. The innkeeper was very friendly and hospitable and was able to recommend a great restaurant for us to go to dinner. We plan on coming back very soon!”

“My boyfriend and I stayed at the ‘Ellen Browning Scripps’ room on our first night and the ‘Holiday suite’ for the next three nights. The Ellen Browning Scripps’ room was small, but quaint; however, this room does not offer any type of view so if you desire a lot of space and views, you may want to consider another room such as the ‘Holiday suite.’ The Bed & Breakfast Inn had a great comfortable and cozy feel with picturesque windows yielding plenty of light. The holiday suite was perfect and offered nice views of the courtyard and park across the street. It boasts original wood floors, nice bright windows, and white linens to emphasize cleanliness. The bathroom of the holiday suite was large with an oval-sized tub. If you desire 'space' or the possibility of entertaining a few guests while in La Jolla, this is a perfect suite for that. The beach is right behind the Museum of Modern Arts, which is right across the street from the bed and breakfast. The courtyard is quiet and tranquil with one small fountain and plenty of local plants (e.g., hostas, lilies, hydrangeas, and etc.). However the biggest assets to the bed and breakfast are; Margaret and Steve who are remarkable at entertaining and making all guests feel at home. They are down to Earth, personable, and quite frankly they made it feel like we were staying with extended family members. The breakfast was delightful and home-made by Margaret, an Ireland native during the week and by a different gourmet chef during the weekend. To be honest, I could not tell them apart because all the breakfasts were excellent. Each breakfast commenced with a fruit of sorts, followed by a gourmet egg dish (e.g. Frittata, quiche, etc.). The egg dish featured a side dish of sausage and one or more vegetables with a fruit-based salsa/compote. The finale to breakfast featured some light dessert (e.g., sorbet, Italian cream, and etc.). Homemade cookies and coffee cakes are available in the lobby throughout the day, in which are usually contributed by Steve. The Calabria Coffee and European hot teas are served with milk or cream throughout the day, in which is great. Finally wine and cheese are available around dinner (4 or 5pm), in which features a good red and white wine. The cheeses include; brie, blue gorgonzola, and Swiss. The cheese is served with fruit, mixed nuts, bruschetta, and other items that vary. In summary, we are well traveled and this bed and breakfast is a steal for the quality, service, and food provided!!! I would recommend this bed and breakfast to anyone and I would rather stay there than any other hotel in the area. Further the breakfast provided cannot be beat by any of the surrounding area restaurants and hotels.”
