    The restaurant & wine. The disconnect and how far my room was from the office.

    I liked the nice customer service. The restaurant was just ok. The red wine not good. My room was ok. I would have loved slippers. The check in was great as well as the check out.

    Overall this was a good standard room, although the hotel itself is a bit dated. It is decent value for money and close to grocery stores etc., except you do need a car. It is right beside the freeway, which is good for access. The hotel itself was very quiet and spread out, with loads of parking.

    Adequate, but not for a vacation. Highly recommend for group meetings or seminars.

    This is not a walkable neighborhood. The small bathroom needs upgrading. There is indoor-outdoor carpet, while modern rooms have hard surface floors. There is no microwave or refrigerator in the room, amenities I have come to count on when traveling. The television was quite small and the channel selection limited.

    The room was well-appointed. The bed was comfortable. I loved the window treatment. This is an older place and while they are doing a lot to make it attractive, one can see the deterioration in the chipped doorways and trim, as well as the worn hallway carpet. It has great meeting facilities and a fabulous heated pool. It is evident that at one time it was a REALLY great place to stay. Staff is excellent…friendly and accommodating. The small limited menu restaurant and the bar are convenient. 24-hour security is present.

    If it was 1983, then this hotel would probably be a stunner but it’s 2023 and the tired decor could do with an upgrade,

    Room had a few things missing. The television's outlet cord was gone and there wasn't a shampoo in the dispenser, only the conditioner dispenser.

    Staff was welcoming. They let us check in early. Our room was spacious and clean. Also the hotel location is right off the highway.

    Couldn't really fault anything.

    Stayed here for a few nights as part of a road trip. Hotel is good and very well priced compared to Downtown San Diego, especially for parking. Sort of no frills but certainly did the job fine.

    The air conditioning was very bad the room felt stuffy and hot at certain points of the day I’m not even sure there was air conditioning the only thermostat adjustment was a fan and we had it at 60 and it was still hot in the room.

    I like the area the hotel was in we had everything around us with a short drive. It was close to the location of our stay and very convenient.

    I believed it would be newly renovated, looks like it was stuck in the 1980’s.

    A lot of noise from the adjoining rooms. Sad to hear people yelling and fighting with each other.

    Easy to get too not too many B.S. charges although parking was charged. Kinda silly there was plenty, and I feel like this is an unneeded charge.

    First time staying, when going to room about 8pm, police in hallway a few doors down, helicopters overhead, domestic dispute, mom in hallway sobbing, child had been taken by father. Upsetting, alarming, kind of killed the vibe, warm, comfortable feeling we got checking in.

    Staff was amazing!
