Recent Britt Scripps Inn Review: "My wife and I spent the last 2 days of our trip to California at the Britt Scripts Inn. I wanted to treat her to a little something special. It was definitely the right choice! The web site description does not begin to do justice to thgeir attention to detail. This house has been perfectly restored to it's full Victorian glory from the paint scheme outside to the phenonemal oak stairway complete with 2 story original stained glass windows. The furnishings were even more ornate than the home itself, if that is possible. It's proximity to the Balboa cultural park and the rest of the city was perfect. Everything was close yet when inside the house you felt like you were in the middle of a glorious estate and all alone in your own little world. In the afternoon they served wine, cheese & crackers. Make sure you allow time for the home cooked breakfast in the morning... it is to die for. A custom menu is printed up each day and when we asked if something was available that was not on the menu, they went out of their way to accomodate with absoloute perfection. If we are ever back in the San diego area we will most definitely be staying at the Britt Scripts Inn again. There is not enough room to say all the nice things that are to be said about this charming little peice of heaven."
