Enjoying La Jolla

We enjoyed staying at the Grande Colonial for 3 nights. Our room was spacious, clean, had water bottles, coffee and complimentary snacks. We had an ocean view room with an actual ocean view. The location was convenient to all of our activities. The valet parking was a big plus as well. The entire staff was extremelly responsive and friendly. We will definitely return.
