Breakfast was excellent and the M-W social was surprising and unexpected. Grounds were very clean and room was quiet, even though we were near the pool. All employees were helpful and friendly.

The beds and linens were not great. The mattresses are past due for replacement and the linens were jokingly called prison blankets during our stay. The room was quiet enough and the room had plenty of space. The pool was unheated and tiny, but we were expecting that based on reviews. The breakfast was great and the service was good throughout our stay.

The hotel was great-close to everything, the rooms were comfortable and spacious, and the breakfast was great. The parking situation would be my only complaint, nightly parking charge. This should be included in the nightly rate, in my opinion.

Room was spacious enough. Sinks hardly drain. Parking is a joke. Pay $26 per night yet there are no spots to park. Spent over an hour waiting to park. 2 cribs were not in room as requested. They brought them then forgot a mattress. Had to wait for that too.

Large Room -ground floor

Hotel is basic nothing fancy, good for family as rooms are large. We stayed on the ground floor and it was quiet. 2 queen bedroom is huge, the separate living space w couch was great. But family member said the pull- out bed was very uncomfortable, so just slept on the couch. Bathroom also huge, it was clean but the wall paper was peeling off, needs updates. The parking lot also is big and busy, fyi you can park on the street overnight instead of paying parking fee. Also dont let the photos fool you. The pool is lame and breakfast not good, just basic. But over all, good for the price and location close enough to the university.

Overall, this property was decent. I was surprised at check in that I had to pay a parking fee - my fault for not reading everything or remembering but I still think it’s a rip off for any hotel to charge for parking. We were told by the very pleasant woman who checked us in that if we could find street parking then I could turn the pass in and there would be no charge. We immediately left after we dropped our bags off and when we returned we found street parking. We turned in the pass. This receptionist looked at my husband like he had three eyes and said well, you will need it tomorrow. So we said if we did need the garage we would come and get the pass. But again, because we arrived later in the day we found street parking. So, guess what? I was still charged for parking. So annoying. At the time of this review I’m still waiting to see what charges are going to hit my credit card. I hope the third receptionist did right by us and removed the charges. If they did, we will return as we visit San Diego quite frequently. If not, there are plenty of other hotels to try out.
