Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located near various attractions, though it may need some updates. The rooms were initially off-putting due to a strong smell and dirty carpet, but they were overall clean. The service was friendly and helpful. The location allowed for easy access to desired places, although there were noise disturbances late at night. The dining provided good options but was a bit expensive. The facilities were functional but showed signs of aging.
I was a bit disappointed with the rooms; they felt small and awkward with no hair dryer available. Additionally, paying for parking and breakfast separately was unexpected, making the overall cost not fully justified. However, the service was exceptional, going out of their way to ensure a pleasant stay. The location was perfect for my needs, and the dining experience, although a little pricey, offered a great variety with delicious options.
The hotel has some highlights like a tropical Hawaiian motif that feels interesting and somewhat appealing, but falls short in maintaining normal AC conditions leading to uncomfortable humidity. The location is convenient coming from Phoenix but slightly out of the way for San Diego sights.
The hotel had clean and comfortable rooms with all the amenities, but the service was a bit lacking in attentiveness. The location was convenient for my needs, and the dining options offered a decent selection. Overall, it was a decent stay for the price paid.
My stay at the hotel was a bit mixed. The rooms were clean and comfortable, which made for a decent night's sleep. However, I had to wait an extra hour for my room, and it felt a bit musty as if it hadn't been used in a while. On the upside, the room size was good.
The hotel rooms were spacious but dated to about 1975, extremely noisy, hot even with the AC on, and a bit hard to find the fitness center. The rooms were dated and had some bugs but were generally okay. The service was friendly and super helpful with all our needs, although there was an issue with the room key. The location, while nice, was crowded with little shade and tables. Dining ranged from horrible and overpriced to excellent with free continental breakfast. The facilities were decent with some room for improvement.
The hotel has a convenient location close to everything but needs improvements in room cleanliness and maintenance. The service was friendly but lacked prompt assistance in some situations. Dining options were acceptable, and the facilities were decent overall.
The hotel provided a spacious and comfortable stay for my family. The service was a bit hit and miss, but the gentleman who helped us with the parking was exceptional. The location was convenient, although there were some noise disturbances on the premises. The dining experience was average, but the buffet selection made up for it. Overall, a mixed but decent experience.
I booked my stay at this hotel two months ago and had a room with a balcony overlooking the golf course, which was a nice touch. However, the location, although nice with beautiful landscaping and ponds, felt a bit crowded and lacked shade. The room was clean, but being right next to the ice and beverage area made it a bit noisy. The service was less than stellar, as we faced some issues with reception and a lack of support regarding damage to our car. The dining options were mediocre, and despite having plenty of choices, the taste was plain. On a positive note, the hotel was perfect for getting around San Diego, and the facilities were just average with nothing exceptional.
My hotel room was probably the largest I've ever had to myself, which was impressive. However, the room was not up to date and that was a big disappointment. I had a peaceful stay until around 12 pm, which is a downside.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was convenient off the freeway, but the lack of cleanliness and response to basic requests like trash removal let down the overall stay. The staff were friendly, which was a plus, but the noise from a nearby baseball team disrupted my peace.
The hotel has some bugs in the room and doesn't smell clean, but it offers a refrigerator that runs 24/7. Housekeeping leaves lights on in the room and provides multiple plastic cups along with various bottles of shampoo, conditioner, and lotion. I had to not allow entry while I was staying due to my dogs being there.
The hotel is well-located and offers clean, comfortable rooms with friendly staff. However, service and dining need improvement. The facilities are acceptable for the price.
The hotel room was spacious with a nice balcony and comfortable beds. However, the appliances were old and had some issues, like the refrigerator and microwave not working. The bathroom had a broken toilet and faced the parking lot.
I had a unique experience at the hotel; the rooms faced the wall with no garden view or sunshine at all, which was unexpected. The room was spacious but had a slight odor and felt old and musty. The service was a mix of accommodating and friendly staff, except for Jaime, which was a drawback. The location, with its pretty atrium, fountains, and koi ponds, was terrific and helpful for all my needs. The dining experience was satisfactory with a packed lunch option. Overall, the facilities were adequate, but there were some issues with the friendliness of some staff members.
