The property location is good with easy accessible to malls and airport. Rooms are spacious and clean. The property do not have daily housekeeping, so that is certainly a negative point. Some of the staff members are rude, which makes an impact if you are travelling with family.

The suite was good sized, but our AC was broke from the time we arrived. We had to have them come 3 times before they decided it needed to be replaced but couldn’t be done until we checked out. It was humid and stagnant in the room because, of course, the windows can’t be opened either. We got the suite for the pullout for our kids, but they were forced to sleep on the floor around our bed because the room had a ceiling fan, which allowed some type of relief from the stickiness in the air. The bathroom had an ant problem as well, so they woke up with ants on their sheets. And let’s not get started on the parking. It is $26 dollars a night and like being in the hunger games. If you are lucky enough to find a spot, don’t leave again because it will be gone and you will be forced to park on the street about a mile away because even the street parking is taken. It was pretty much an awful back to school trip for the kids. This place needs to figure some things out! But, the staff was super friendly and there is continental breakfast which is always nice.

The receptionist was welcoming and friendly, the breakfast was well attended. The room (306) however, was really cold upon our arrival so I turned up the thermostat and also noticed a smell that could have been carpet cleaner solution. The rest of the room was clean, it was until I pulled out the sleeper sofa that we noticed a faint urine smell. As the room began to warm up a bit the urine odor got stronger. My husband and I spent the night on sleeper sofa so our grandchildren would not have to be breathing in the urine odor. Unfortunately, I couldn’t sleep through the night since the smell got stronger. I didn’t call the receptionist since I was told housekeeping staff left at 9pm. and switching rooms would have been a hassle since our grandchildren had already fallen asleep. I do regret my decision of just dealing with the smell through the night. Upon check out, I did inform the front desk receptionist about the urine odor, she politely apologized, however, I do hope that the room gets a deeper cleaning so to avoid any more guests deal with such issues. I’m aware that your company allows pets in the rooms and hopefully you can do a better job in making sure the rooms are clean and odor free. Thank you

We had a large ant infestation in the room (hundreds) and also had a lot of damage (unstapled carpets, tears in wallpaper, splintered wood and doors, etc). There was an offer to spray the room with insecticide but we declined since we were traveling with an infant and didn't want the exposure. The breakfast was good.

It was fine.

We had to change rooms because things were broken in the first one. Holes in the furniture and curtains. The second room was similar to the first. It was fine. I just think a little overpriced for location and condition of the rooms. Breakfast was delicious and room service is only every other day, which I can appreciate. We were only there two days so no room service.

This hotel is in within a 20 minute driving distance to most popular attractions around San Diego. It is not walkable, though. Lots of amenities like Target, Trader Joe's and restaurants are nearby. The hotel room itself was fine except for the two interior doors not working properly. The one dividing the rooms was so loose it would not close and the one on the bathroom required immense strength to close. The breakfast is available with a lot of options, but the eggs and meat selection were ok. Overall a fine option for families, but could be a little better.

I used to stay there several times in the past. Spacious and clean rooms. The desk staff is nice. The change to the past is that room was more quite anymore. There was a noise around midnight from the upper room, dog barking in the morning, repeatedly. The staff shouting to each other on the breakfast area in the morning, the breakfast man even whistling almost every morning in the breakfast area....

I chose this Homewood Suites for its good ratings and location centrally located. It is close to a freeway entrance and made it easy to get around San Diego. However, I have to comment that the walls for our room were so thin, that the noise level coming from the adjacent rooms next to us and above us was unbearable. I am a relatively light sleeper, so hearing people walk around above us and the conversations and activity next door to us made it very difficult to get any rest while in the room. I noticed the issue as soon as we checked in and quickly ask the front desk staff to change rooms, but unfortunately they said the hotel was all booked and basically gave me the shrug and "there is nothing we can do" comments. I was hoping it was an isolated incidence of noise, but it didn't let up the entire time of our stay. I don't think we were alone either in dealing with the thin walls as I noticed a nearby resident also standing outside his door trying to determine where the noise he was experiencing was coming from. The problem is that all the walls are too thin. Noise was coming from above us and around us. I think this is a fatal flaw for anyone considering staying at this hotel. When you have many families traveling to this destination and trying to enjoy themselves (which I don't fault), but the rooms are so poorly constructed that I could literally hear what people are saying (no privacy), we ultimately checked out a night early because it was so bad.
