Really enjoyed my stay! I had the partial ocean front room and still had a great view of the ocean. The room did overlook the street/parking lot, but it was not noisy (my room was on level 3). Beds were comfortable, room and bathroom were spacious!

We loved our short stay here! The heated pool was delightful and the coffee bar and on site dining was great. The staff helped us check out bikes and explore the boardwalk - and it was nice and quiet at night. Our autistic son loved this place- just the right speed.

Beautiful Hotel in a perfect location!

Beautiful Hotel right in the middle of everything! Room was steps from the pool and could hear the ocean at night. The whole trip was so relaxing, and the staff are amazing and so helpful! We've never been to San Diego before so we couldn't have picked a better location or hotel. We'll be back for sure.

This was our first time in San Diego so I had no idea what to expect in the area other than what I read online. Man was I lucky to pick this hotel. After speaking to some of the folks in the area, it's the best there is and the staff is just awesome and incredibly accommodating. Our view was incredible. I wouldn't stay anywhere else unless it was an emergency.

Not sure how the hotel got such a high rating, but the entire experience was very up to the standard of rating. First of all the hotel is very outdated and old. Surround the area nothing much to do unless you like clubbing/noisy bars. Breakfast restaurant interior is a joke. So outdated and worse than McDonald 20 years ago. I wouldn’t come back.

Nice hotel that’s clean with prompt room cleaning/refresh and friendly front staff. Bikes and beach chairs included. Only downside is 44$ a day parking fee. This might be optional but they don’t offer it that way. I didn’t fuss because I had some trips planned, a 7 y/oId and it was a rental. If you’re not going to be driving you can find street parking.
