    Nothing

    The property was spot on with everything important. The bed was comfortable, the linens were soft, the room smelled pleasant, the bathroom was well appointed, and the lighting perfect. Their grounds are lovely and close enough to the main shopping dining area via a quick stroll but not directly in the center so it feels quiet and private. The team was kind and helpful on entry and exit with plenty of suggestions should they be needed. We would stay again :) Thank you Orli team :)

    This is a lovely boutique hotel with an amazing staff and in a great location. The only improvement I would suggest is adding a closet to the room. My room would have been more comfortable if it had one. Other than that I had a great stay there.

    Our room was particularly small. It would have been nice to have a bit more closet space, and a few drawers. Maybe the nightstands could be replaced with ones that have a few drawers?

    The hotel was tastefully decorated, and very clean. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The room was very quiet, as well as the hotel’s location. The complimentary brew bar and outside seating were lovely!

    Only 2 negatives - (1) no onsite parking - we used a public parking facility a few blocks away, that we had to pay for. (2)no closet in room. This was baffling.

    The Orli is a lovely boutique hotel. Spacious room and bathroom and lovely interior courtyard. Staff very helpful.

    There was nothing that we didn't like. It was perfect.

    I liked everything. It felt like being a guest in someone's house. The courtyard is intimate and lovely. The interior design is just beautiful. The extra touches like Kombucha and pastries from the local bakery were totally unexpected. Jordan was so hospitable. We felt so welcomed.

    Incredibly charming hotel, we will come back for sure! We stayed for 8 nights : one night in the « Nomad » room and 7 nights in « The Bunk » room. First of all, prior to our arrival, the concierges were very responsive to all of our questions and demands. On site, the staff is so helpful and you can feel that they want to make your stay enjoyable. Each room was very clean and the beds were extremely comfy. The common areas were delightful and luxurious, with fresh flowers and incredible attention to detail. You can tell that the owners really put some thought into every little aspect of the hotel. The Nomad is a spacious room with a peak on the ocean. The Polaroid in this room was really a great surprise and we had fun with it. The Bunk is a smaller room without any view, but we preferred it for our week stay because of the kitchenette (large sink, mini fridge, Nespresso, kettle, toaster, large Breville toaster oven / air fryer). We were traveling with our 7 year old son, so the kitchenette was really useful for us. Parking was plentiful on the street and we did not need to pay. The location was fantastic. Plenty of shops, restaurants and of course, the ocean (and the seals!!!), all within a very short walking distance. All and all, we had a fabulous stay and it was the best hotel we have ever experienced.

    Everything! I love staying at boutique hotels and this one does not disappoint....easy check-in, prompt room clean up, great treats and kombucha & cold brew on tap! Their communication was amazing and staff very attentive. The location was excellent, easy walk to restaurants and the coast. Street parking was abundant as well.

    Great location. Very accommodating staff. We had an early check-in. And after we checked out, we needed to stay around for a few hours, and were offered two bicycles by the staff! We cruised up and down the coastline in La Jolla and had a great time. Thanks!

    My only regret is that we couldn't stay longer!!

    The property was truly magnificent both inside and out! I have done much traveling both nationally and internationally and this place exceeds most. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism. Our room was beautifully decorated, the courtyard and common areas were so well thought out, making it comfortable at every turn. There were fresh pastries put out each day, a coffee bar with a variety of flavors, games to play, beach bikes to use...the fun just never stopped. Additionally, the location was in the heart of everything, yet the grounds were quiet and peaceful. The staff was amazing, especially Jordan! We were so sad to leave because it felt like home, we cannot wait to go back again. I don't normally write reviews but this place was so exceptional that it deserved one. Thank you Orli of La Jolla, see you again soon!!!

    There were mosquitoes in our room which we noticed within an hour of checking in - and when I mentioned that to the manager after informing him that we were there after an 18 hour flight, he made no effort to address it. He asked me how they got there (and whether I had opened the window for them to come in!) and then told me that I had to go get a mosquito spray myself from CVS myself. There was also an additional 29 USD charge for parking which we thought was not okay.

    Place is done tastefully, very clean and in a great location.
