Could not find hotel
Staff was great. First two nights extremely noisy with children running and screaming Great breakfast. Extremely difficult to find hotel in the dark. Terrible lack of signs and very poor lighting Can’t figure out how they can get away with that. Again, great staff

It was very good experience overall. Only one thing I can think of which may not be good was they gave me room which had an adjoining door for another room. Because of that the talks and sounds were audible across. Wasn’t a comfortable situation.

Decent hotel, Downtown San Diego needs work
Downtown San Diego isn't what I remember. Not the clean lively downtown like it used to be. This hotel is nice but it's a few blocks to get to the heart of downtown...we enjoyed the walk during the day....but not down, i think 7th street where I think the Salvation Army HQ is located. It's a street completely filled with homeless people in tents. We also need to get a suite with a separate bedroom due to sleeping issues. This was a nice room but I the refrigerator & coffee maker are in the bedroom. I would prefer the front room so the person who gets up early has access. Also, the wall doesn't go all the way to the ceiling. Cute patio...kind of noisy at night...lots of sirens, unfortunately. Good breakfast & nice staff.

It was a good place to stay, friendly staff, decent breakfast. However on our floor we have “tour groups” and every single night people were running up and down the hallways and being extremely loud. I’m kinda surprised no one came up and told the group anything. Hopefully they keep track of loud crowds so they can address the issue.
