Surprise- Charged $10.00 /DAY parking. Then if you came in late evening you were lucky if you could find a spot. Two hotels next to each other with limited parking not good. Have had that problem before staying here but the parking fee will make me look for somewhere else next trip. One desk clerk spoke broken English which was impossible for me but the wife could make most of it out.. He tried to be very helpful but with communication problem for me he was not helpful.

Breakfast was great. Staff were friendly and helpful. Bed was comfortable. Room was quiet and spacious. Did not get a chance to use the pool.

Shower clogged on first attempt. Wife had to leave and walk down the hall in a towel to rinse in a vacant room while it was being fixed. Staff were friendly and helpful.

I didn’t eat breakfast at the hotel. I met friends at restaurants every day. I lived in San Diego for 30 years and moved out of state. Every time I come back to San Diego I try to stay at this hotel mainly because of the friendly staff and the cleanliness of the room. It’s also handy to the places I want to go.

Sometimes parking is an issue here, but now that it’s monitored better, it’s a little better.

My daughter was there for an ice skating competition and the staff cheered her on. She was so excited about their support.

Everything was fine.

The staff went above and beyond to make my stay a very comfortable one. I needed a couple more days and they were very full and still accommodated me.

It is in a good place, it is adequate and comfortable except for the bathroom.

When I bathe, the water runs out into the local bathroom area when leaving, it can cause an accident. It would be advisable to buy a mat that causes the water to leak out.

it was nice and updated. the only thing I wished that the rooms were more cleaner the floor looked like they didn’t clean it it had shoe prints all over the floor the carpet was really dirty had a lot of stains the walls were full of shoe marks. they need to do better on cleaning & get the carpets washed.

how the carpet was really dirty. Also it says it’s a bone smoking hotel but the hallways smell like cigarettes.

clean and comfortable, modern close to freeway,food etc.

small parking lot tight spaces shared by another hotel and possibly nearby restaurant patrons. charged $20 to park. I won’t stay here again simply for that reason.

Clean room, fairly quiet, staff was welcoming and the breakfast was good and satisfying

Parking wasn't too bad, but there is only limited space, especially for a weekend stay

Our daughter lives in the area, the location of the hotel near her home and near the event we were attending

Parking was limited, but that’s expected with it being near a restaurant
