Excellent stay. The only disappointing factor was the charge for parking at a facility, which had more than adequate parking available.

Exceptional Stay with Outstanding Service!

I recently stayed at this hotel with my family after escaping the fires in Los Angeles, and I couldn’t have been more impressed. The staff was absolutely amazing, going above and beyond to make us feel comfortable during a stressful time. Special recognition goes to David, the Bistro Manager, and Stacy, the Front Desk Agent. Their kindness and professionalism truly stood out and made our stay exceptional. The food at the Bistro was fantastic, and the rooms were spotless and comfortable. It’s clear that the staff takes pride in maintaining high standards. Without a doubt, this hotel will be my first choice whenever I’m in San Diego again. Highly recommended!
