Location is great. About 8-12 min drive yo places like La Jolla, Old Town, Little Italy, SD zoo. Double bed rooms are a bit compact, but we didn’t mind considering we spent most of our time exploring.

I wanted to stay near Mission Beach without actually being down in the thick of it. I found this online and the price was right and it was within walking distance of De Anza Cove. Had a good central location, easy off and on the freeways. Close to Seaworld and old town.

Friendly housekeeping and breakfast staff. Breakfast is average and pool is tiny. Air coming from the AC unit smelled bad so the room had a bad odor the entire time. Overall clean and comfortable place to stay.

The location of this hotel is prime. It is next to major freeways and Garnet Avenue in Pacific Beach. We were able to enjoy good restaurants close by. There is plenty of hotel parking and the breakfast was pretty good. You get what you pay for. One down side is if you are staying on the far side of the hotel, there are no entrances, only exits. The only entrances are in the middle of the building or closer to the office. Otherwise, we loved how convenient this hotel was.

I like that my room had a microwave and fridge. I didn’t use the microwave, but I did use the fridge. I liked their breakfast; sausage and eggs were good, but the potatoes were undercooked. The bathroom door was hard to close. The bathroom fan was not working. But overall, I liked the room.
