It was a great base to explore San Diego. Staff was friendly, professional and helpful. The location was perfect for walking and catching the bus. We would definitely stay again. It’s an older/boutique style hotel. So the room was small, but it was fine since we spent most of the time exploring the city. And the AC was loud. Not a big deal, just something to consider.
