Great spot and excellent breakfast spread
Great view of the bay on the southwest corner, definitely loved some AC, and the inside was gorgeous. Best part though would have to be the made to order omelettes and full spread breakfast - didn't get to the corner steakhouse, next time! Reese was also a polite and helpful young man

Had problems with the a/c unit did not work properly. Reported it to management and they really didn't care the manager was sapose to contact me and never did. They just expect the customer to deal with it since they already have your money so they just dont care Embassy Suites has really just taken a no care attitude.

There are things you could nitpick about the hotel if you're picky, but overall I enjoyed my stay and I would recommend. Seems like the parking is an issue, being forced to use the valet and the price for that. I did not have a vehicle so I can't comment on that. The A/C unit is a bit loud when it kicks on, and it does that multiple times throughout the night. It didn't bother me enough to complain about, but I can see how that would be an issue for others. Hot water temperature was pretty consistent, one morning it fluctuated from hot to lukewarm for a couple minutes but that was it. Water pressure from shower head isn't too good, but again, not enough to make me complain. There is a weird 25$ fee they charge you per day which can be used as a credit towards dinning or snack shop, so be sure to utilize that daily. Complimentary breakfast was ok, nothing special. They do have an omelette station which gets busy. All in all, it's a good hotel in a great location. The Embarcadero is right across the street, airport is nearby, Gaslamp quarters, San Diego Zoo is a quick rideshare away. Lots of walkable stuff to do in the area.

The Embassy Suites in San Diego is a nice hotel for families. Our room has 3 sinks. The area is very walkable and close to the trolley. It’s across the street from Seaport Village and a 10 minute walk to the USS Midway. The only negatives are its valet parking only and takes 10-20 minutes to get your car. You can try calling the valet booth but out of 5 times we tried calling, someone answered only once. And on our way out the valet attendant was literally sleeping in the booth. The daily $25 fee but you get $25 credit that you must use daily is simply a cover-up for another hotel fee.
