My family and I enjoyed our stay at this Holiday Inn location. The staff was excellent. Sam at the front desk went above and beyond in making our stay comfortable. The breakfast was good, the pool was clean and the room was in an excellent state. I will 100% recommend this hotel to anyone who is planning to visit San Diego and wants to find a stay in this area.
