Overall, very very happy with our stay. Hotel staff was friendly and polite. Got everything that we asked for and any problems got fixed right away. Hotel breakfast had lots of options and it was not super noisy. I would recommend this hotel to anyone especially people looking to travel to the touristy attractions as the shuttle was excellent.
Positives: Shuttle was awesome. Took us to most places that we needed to go.
Negatives: Wish it was a little closer to things.

Pleasant helpful staff. Possibly problems, we observed, could have been prevented by an inspection following cleaning service. I prefer low prices so I cannot complain about the age of the structure.
Positives: Workers were always visible. Balboa Park was just a "walk up the street." Efficient shuttle to Airport.
Negatives: Room was much smaller than expected. Sink facet did not turn off without significant effort.

I did not appreciate the noise out side early in the morning. Cost me less to park at Seaworld than at this hotel, also parking structures were very tight and confusing. Took some time to exit but overall it was clean.
Positives: Clean.
Negatives: Very noisy out side early in the morning and parking cost was more than they charge at Seaworld.

Parking was very expensive. Restaurant affiliated with hotel was empty and looked very unappealing. Could've stayed just a few miles away for a far better experience.
Positives: nothing.
Negatives: run down, had to pay way too much for parking.

The staff, free breakfast, room, shuttle availability, location to airport and USMC facility was excellent. I would definitely stay there again despite the small bathroom. Check in and checkout was EXCELLENT!
Positives: The staff was friendly, professional and responsive to your needs. I loved the free hot breakfast!
Negatives: The bathroom was very small without a fan. Your elbow would touch the door while using the toilet. However, it was updated decor that was nice.
