Don't let the exterior fool you...the place is pretty nice inside (carpets and furniture are pretty updated)...even granite counters in the kitchen. The location is awesome...one block from tons of restaurants and even a Whole Foods (which is great because you have a full kitchen) and there is a Ralph's a little farther down. The breakfast was good...staff is nice... more

Just stayed at the hotel for a week with my 10 year old daughter. Hotel exceeded my expectations. Good breakfast, free parking, pool and hot tub clean, location is great for travelling to Zoo, Seaworld, etc. lots of trendy restaurants nearby and grocery stores are about six blocks away. I would stay here again. more

Great hotel. My studio room had a kitchenette with everything you needed to cook. Almost an apartment. The property is handy to the Hillcrest neighborhood (steps from Peets Coffee, 2 drug stores, a Trader Joes and Whole Foods, plus many interesting local restaurants. Staff was friendly. Room was spotless. Rate was a steal. Book directly with the hotel website for... more

We spent 2 nights in San Diego (before the fire started.) It was a great stay for a family. Our room was clean (a bit outdated but it was ok to us). There were 5 of us including a toddler so we had to book a suite. Our daughter was very happily exploring the rooms and we didn't feel crowded... more

Stayed here after the fires, every room in SD was booked as well as my favorite the Park Manor. I prefer to stay close to hillcrest so this was my other option. The room was large and the kitchen was great to have. I booked a king but as usual since I check in late was given two doubles. The... more

We stayed in the hotel for 4 days in June. There was a discount for a 4 day stay. The 1 bedroom suite we were in is quite spacious, and there was a sofa bed in the living room too. It housed my family of 4 comfortably. My wife was very happy with the kitchen, which is adequately stocked. There... more

We stayed at this hotel with our 2 kids, ages 3 and 1, for four nites. My husband at a conference at the convention center which was a quick drive for him each morning--10 minutes--from this hotel, which by the way offers free parking. The hotel location is a bit of a mix--surrounded by a hospital and various health care... more

We booked a double room with Expedia.com.au, our price was $120 a night for September 2007. ( Two people, Two Beds. ) The Hotel was great, when we booked in the airline we`d flown to San Diego on had lost our bags and the girl at reception immediately offered us toothpaste and brushes. Rooms are spotlessly clean, there is a... more

I had fairly low expectations because of some of the lukewarm Tripadvisor reviews. It outperformed those expectations. The rooms really are suites. Mine had a living room, full kitchen, and separate bedroom. Two TV's with HBO. The kitchen was stocked with coffee, popcorn, and a candy bar. There were some plates, sliverware, and kitchen utensils. Adequate parking is provided and,... more
