Price was the best deal I could find considering what was available in the area. It is conveniently localed to the Petco stadium, the train station, the troley and has fine dining all around including a great restaurant inside. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The room is adequate and very clean. The only problem we had was with the elevator it was very slow and difficult to get into and out of. If you have luggage ask for help.
