Everything was great about our stay except the sofa bed had trash and the mattress was stained. Maintenance came to check it out and tried finding an extra mattress to switch it out but they were unable to. The property ended up making some price changes due to the inconvenience. The room was nice and great for the days we needed it. Complimentary breakfast was offered and the location was fantastic!

hoangoanh

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The bed was comfortable and clean, and the bathroom was adequate. The room included a small kitchen with a large refrigerator, which was convenient, but unlike many other hotels, no complimentary bottled water was provided. Breakfast was very basic and only served from 6:30 to 8:30 a.m., which I nearly missed since I was on vacation rather than a business trip. I booked the room through Expedia and wasn’t aware that the hotel charges for parking. Fortunately, we only stayed one night. Overall, I would rate this stay three stars and would likely choose a different hotel on my next visit to San Diego.

Loved the space that the two bedroom suite provided. Breakfast was a little disappointing. Had a leak from our exterior window and we’re not offered a new room. They just put towels down. Overall we had a good stay and would likely return because the location and space were great for us.

Great location for the San Diego Holiday Half Marathon. Within walking distance to Olive Garden and other spots to eat. The front staff were unbelievably kind to me when checking in, even after I complained about the check in process. Upon check in, the staff provided runners with a nice gift bag. Waters, hydration packs, etc. Very much appreciated. The room was clean and spacious. The HVAC worked wonderfully and the bed was comfortable. Allowing a nice sleep before the race.
