When you come to San Diego and stay at any place in Hotel Circle, more than 90% of the time will be 20+ years old. As I come very often, we look for places renovated and with good staf. This hotel used to be "La Quinta" but it is painted, clean and most important, all the staf were very friendly. We needed some help with the AC, and in 5 minutes a very nice guy came and fixed it. Asked for more towels, used the pool, everybody did a good job.
