“La Jolla's seaside split”
Right on La Jolla's shore with sea lions and seabirds for company, Pantai Inn splits opinion sharply. Fans cite a spotless big first-line sea-view room, an incredible rooftop, genuinely warm helpful staff, a lovely complimentary breakfast, a perfect courtyard and a great location — third-stay loyalty included. A serious warning dissent though: the property itself is old — one room was dirty, and a twin room contained a saggy dirty temporary bed, making the booking a failure despite good staff; drinks are self-collected from the front desk downstairs.
