The hotel is located close the the convention center, Gaslamp district and Petco Park. All employees were friendly and the food onsite was tasteful with a variety of options. The suite was spacious with a separate shower and toilet areas. The area outside of the shower had a tendency to be slippery with water making its way to the surrounding area. While the rooms show some age, it was clean and organized well. There was a sliding glass door that opened to allow access to fresh air. Located on the 3rd floor, the workout room was sufficient with 4 treadmills, a stationary bike and a variety of machines and free weights. Read less

Michael assisted us with our bell carts, provided us with water bottles and pulled our car up extremely quick. I will definitely bring my family back to this hotel when visiting san diego again.
