Great customer service. Location was fantastic. It was right across from old town. Hotel was clean. Pool was ok. Overall, we would recommend staying here.
The hotel was nice but mattress to bed was not the greatest. The food at restaurant was about a 7 out of 10. Staff was nice, hotel was 8 out of 10

Uncomfortable beds but Good location
Beds were horribly uncomfortable however the hotel was conveniently located near the Universities and Sea World, which was our main purpose of visiting San Diego. Cost for parking was expensive. I would expect to pay $30-35 for parking in a hotel if it was located near hotels with limited parking or near the water.
Very nice stay, beautiful decor and clean. Surrounding shops and dining are quaint and friendly. I was traveling alone and felt very safe in this hotel and neighboring establishments for dining and shopping.
Worst hotel i have ever stayed at the first room they gave me the shower handle came right off then I called front seat no answer i went to front desk she was reading a book I told her the shower handle problem said let me upgrade your room get to the 2 nd room i went from a king bed to 2 queen beds not an upgrade the shower handle in this bathroom was so loose you couldn’t control water temp the sink knob when you turned it on started shaking and spitting water the AC every time it turned on was extremely loud
DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL

Liked: Staff & service
Every time you took a shower in room 407, water leaked out onto the floor, requiring several towels to wipe up.
Always a great stay. Rooms clean and spacious. Staff always helpful. Good breakfast and dinner options. Love that there is laundry on premise. Perfect location for visiting USD.
We always stay at a Hilton’s property. This trip we were exited to stay at this hotel as it’s close to old town San Diego (walkable). However, the first night we had a hiccup as the pull up sofa bed was broken and very very dirty (this is very rare). That night trying to sleep was not possible. We moved to another room.
The location is great and we were able to dine and go shopping at anytime we wanted to with the possibility of going back cool off and go back to continue shopping without using an Uber.
