I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were lovely with two double beds and a reasonable amount of storage space. Although the carpet showed signs of age, the room was air-conditioned, well-equipped, and clean. Facing the car park didn't affect the cleanliness or the spaciousness of the room.

The dining options were a bit limited, with breakfast being the highlight but only available in the morning. Despite some concerns about ordering in due to potential cold food, the breakfast cafe was a good start to the day.

The hotel had spacious rooms with plenty of choices in beds, but lacking a comfortable upholstered chair for relaxation. The service was a mix of friendly and detached interactions. The location was fantastic for exploring downtown San Diego with easy access to Little Italy. The dining options were varied and enjoyable. Overall, a good value for money with some room for improvement in service.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were really nice, huge, and had a balcony, fridge, and microwave, making it very convenient. The beds were incredibly comfortable; however, it would have been perfect if there was a comfortable upholstered chair for relaxing in the room. The service was friendly and welcoming overall, but there were a few instances where language differences made communication a bit challenging. The location was excellent, allowing easy access to Little Italy and various attractions. The dining experience was more than satisfactory, offering an array of delicious options. The facilities were top-notch, providing everything I needed for a comfortable stay.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were great and very comfortable with a fantastic view from our 11th-floor window. They were spacious, up to date, and very clean. The service was top-notch at the front desk and restaurant, making us feel truly welcome. The location was superb, convenient to the waterfront, Gaslamp, and Little Italy districts, fitting perfectly with our downtown and bay area plans. The dining experience was fantastic with a variety of hot and cold options, though there were minor issues with the scrambled eggs. Overall, a great value for money.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, while clean and with a nice pool view from the tiny balcony, had a lingering smoky odor that became more noticeable each day. The service, however, was top-notch with always friendly and helpful staff who quickly attended to any issues. The location was convenient, allowing easy access to various attractions by foot, although the area felt a bit deserted at times. The dining experience was a letdown with lukewarm processed food, but the Bayside grill was a decent option. Overall, it's a place with its ups and downs that could use some improvements.
