Cleaning staff were friendly, parking is a bit tight. Overall clean hotel and close to all the places we needed to be. Checkin/out was easy, rooms were clean. Soap available, but you will need to bring your own shampoo.

Disliked: Amenities
Rooms were OK but there were bugs in the rooms and the only way to lock the window was with it open almost 2 inches. The beds were comfortable and it met our needs for one night in the area. The air conditioning was AMAZING for a HOT San Diego July day.
