“Wow - very nicely surprised”

This was one of the less expensive hotels and it more than exceeded my expectations. The room I was in was recently rennovated and was spacious with nice beds and linens. The staff were very responsive sending up a cork-screw within 5 minutes of calling for one. While the hotel is not close to beaches it is very accessible to freeways without being right next to one. It is located in a predominately residential and business office neighborhood with every restaurant chain you could want within 5 miles. You won't need them for breakfast however, as it serves a better-than-average buffet with plenty of food and including a protien (bacon, sausage, eggs), fresh fruit, waffles, pastries, multiple hot and cold drinks and juices and a decent coffee. Plus the setting was more restaurant-style rather than tables placed in a hallway. Nice holiday decor and fireplace added to the warm welcome in the lobby and you could always serve a fresh cup of coffee or get a cookie all day. With my stay, there were no add-on charges such as internet or parking which also made it nice. I would recommend this hotel.

“Expensive compared what they offer”

Pros: very good neighborhood, and the breakfast is amazing and very well organized, spacious room. Cons: the front desk lady was very impolite, she speaks very fast, and doesn't care if you understand or not, and when you ask her to repeat a question, she makes faces. The room is very old fashion, there was an scary noise from the corridor due to old fans and air conditioners. It was very expensive compared to what they offer. If you are for tourism in San Diego it is not well located.

“Not Impressed”

The service leaves a lot to be desired. The hallway carpets are old and stinky and the room furnishings are just OK. The only bright spot about the hotel is a good breakfast.

Comment from the hotel's management
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. I am sorry to hear that your experience with us did not meet your expectations, or what we strive for in customer service. However, I am excited to share that we are in the process of completing our second phase of renovations, and all guest rooms will include new flat screen TV's, microwave & refrigerator sets, window treatments, wallpaper, carpet, and even improvements to our public areas. It is also great to hear you were able to enjoy our complimentary breakfast buffet in the morning. If you have any additional questions, concerns, or if I can be of any assistance, please feel free to contact me directly, at your convenience. I look forward to hearing from you, and hopefully you will consider staying with us again during your next visit to San Diego, so that we may strive to exceed your expectations!

“Surprisingly nice hotel”

The pictures shown for this hotel were a bit misleading. When I saw them I thought the room would be really small but I was pleasantly surprised. There was a couch and TV that was separate from the bedroom. The room was a good size for my 16 month old boy to run around in. Being in the business district the hotel was very quiet. There were plenty of stores and shopping areas that were only a short drive away. Overall I was very pleased and would definitely stay there again.

“The best stay in San Diego”

I have stayed downtown before, hostels, gaslamp district, near Sea World & this is the best stay that I've had there! Breakfast was so awesome, the only complaints that I have in this hotel is that there was only one waffle maker...not a big deal @ all! Just waited my turn. Oh, there was one other thing, the A/C unit took awhile to cool down the room, other than that, I didn't mind the 20 minute drive to Sea World or downtown San Diego. I would stay here again!!!
