San Diego weekend

Great location in downtown San Diego, close to restaurants, walkable area. Also close to the stadium. The staff was friendly and helpful. The hotel itself was modern and very clean. We would definitely recommend staying here and we would stay here again
Claudia, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Parking sucks. It’s $42 dollars to valet parking and they don’t have free self parking. You have to park in a lot around the corner which charges $30 for 24 hour parking . Other than that the hotel is decent . It’s an older hotel and it shows but the staff was friendly and service was good.

Leslie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Hotel is basic, but everything you need. Clean, modern, and tidy. I really appreciated being the guest of the day, it allowed me to check in early. No breakfast or pool, but there is a gym and a first floor sitting area. Area around has some spots to eat for breakfast as well as a nearby MTS station which was very convenient, but a lot of homeless and can get sketchy at night. For the price, this hotel is worth staying at for a few days.
