"I was a very nice stay in a clean home, very impressed. The next statement are improvement suggestions. We had to clean the grill before using it. The grease trap underneath the burners was pretty thick and a potential fire hazard. The patio can use better lighting. The base of tub needs a new bead of chalking. The Brita water pitcher is cracked on the bottom and leaked in the refrigerator. We washed the hammock that smelled like dog my wife said. All in all a very nice comfortable stay."

"Perfect location in Seaport Village. Close to the sea taxi to Coronado, walking distance to Gas Lamp, the Midway, the baseball stadium…this hotel honestly could t get any better . It has been my go to San Diego hotel for 15 years (I go to SD once a year at least). If you want a hotel that is beautiful , clean, comfy, and worth your money it is this one! Staff is always so pleasant and will go out of their way to make your stay perfect! 5 stars isn’t enough, I would give 100 out of 5. The location is also very very safe. Even at night I walk around the area with no worries, and you do not see any of the homeless population. I would stay there alone as a female and not have a second thought .Thank you everyone who works there, don’t change anything!! Absolutely perfect!"

"I arrived early to check in possibly at 3 PM. I did not get my room until 5 PM. There was no sense of urgency when I called to get my room serviced with towels and coffee. After my third day, I asked to have the sheets changed and it took four phone calls three to housekeeping and one to the front desk to finally get someone to come clean my room. A resort where I’m paying $700 a night. I had a great room with nice location on the Water side, but the Service needs some help."
