Room was big and comfortable, breakfast was pretty good. The room had coffee making condiments but no coffee maker. There is no bottled water in the room, you had to purchase it from the lobby. Lastly toilet paper was too thin, it felt similar to the one they use in portable restrooms.

The room was clean. The staff is great and helpful. The rooms were spacious, and having a full kitchen was great. Some would say it might feel slightly outdated, but I like a retro style. Things changed since my last visiting San Diego (was there in 2009). It is not the hotel, it is the general experience as "money grab" somehow became a norm in California. 28 USD a night for parking of a rental car on the property, and it is not even a downtown of SD... Used to be free. But, again, it is the general impression from California, not the hotel itself. I would recommend the hotel.
