2/10 Poor

I wasnt checked in to the hotel because of a glitch in the system, i was declined to check in.
Araceli, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Is this property is horrible... They tried to charge me three hundred dollars for my ada service dog... And the parking is not free... I do not recommend this place. They said they refunded me my money but they did not. I had to call expedia to get my money back because the hotel straight up lied About my money being refunded to me. The place right below called kings inn is much nicer, cheaper, and everyone is friendly and the hotel is always clean and always nice staff. I always feel safe and comfortable staying here.I would not stay anywhere else.
Nicholas, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Nope

Many of the amenities listed the room doesn’t have. Was told these are old pictures to the updated rooms. The utinsiles were horrible! Didn’t even have a pot to boil noodles! The kitchen counter is extremely small to cook at the drawers we’re falling apart the curtains were very stained. Charcoal bbq is actually gas on a timer the stove is on 15 min timer while trying to boil noodles! I wouldn’t stay here.. room sleeps 6 but you get 3 spoons 4 forks 2 bowls and 3 plates! Was not what I expected at all!

Nice
Ashley, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Room was ok. We liked the living room separate from bedroom.. liked having a kitchen.. the bed was awful, sagged in the center and one side really low to the ground. The elevator was "broken" 4 outta the 5 days we were there. We were on the 3rd floor and i have mobility issues. I would have asked for the 1st floor had i known we would be using the stairs. Had to carry all 6 bags down 3 flights of stairs at 7 in the morning of our checkout. Extremely frustrating for someone who has ankle surgery 6 months ago. Staff was friendly if you could ever find them, they were usually in back office
Scott, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

All was sufficient for our stay
Keith, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect place for our family

This was the perfect place for us. We got a 1 bedroom suite. It was like a small apartment. It had 2 queen beds and a sofa bed and 2 bathrooms. Which was great considering we had 5 people. We stayed for a week. It wasn’t noisy, like alot of places we have stayed. We were able to make food and had everything that we needed to stay comfortably. Like we were at home. When we needed a refill on soap or toilet paper, the staff was attentive. If we are in San Diego again, we will definitely stay here.
