The hotel was really nice. The room was clean and comfy. The staff was very friendly. I chose the hotel because it was close to the convention center, for Comic-Con, so I was able to use Lyft with minimal charges.

"Exceptional Stay with Outstanding Service and Comfort!!!"

Excellent Stay!! I had an amazing stay at the hotel from July 10–12. The staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and taken care of throughout my visit. The room was incredibly spacious, spotless, and filled with thoughtful amenities that made my stay extra comfortable. From the luxurious bedding to the well-stocked bathroom and in-room coffee station, everything exceeded my expectations. The area is great! So many things to do being so close to downtown and old-town San Diego. I can’t wait to come back—truly one of the best hotel experiences I’ve ever had!
