    Exceptional Family Stay with Wonderful Service

    Our family enjoyed a memorable stay with excellent service. Early check-in was a breeze, allowing us to relax immediately after our overnight flight. The heated pool was a lifesaver, even in cooler weather, and the breakfast selection was delightful—especially the pancakes! Perfect for tired travelers!

    great breakfast

    Had an awesome trip with my friends! We checked out the exhilarating Shamu show at SeaWorld and spent a relaxing day at La Jolla Beach. The breakfast was great each morning, and the staff was super friendly. The Queen Suite was comfy and had plenty of space for all of us. Parking was manageable, though a bit tight, and it was just a short drive to all the attractions.

    convenient location
    tasty breakfast
    frustrating parking
    unappealing area
    cramped dining

    Proximity to popular attractions like SeaWorld is a plus, making it convenient for families. The breakfast selections were varied and tasty, with standout items like freshly brewed coffee. However, parking is extremely tight and frustrating, causing several guests to feel aggravated. The location is in an industrial area that lacks charm, and the breakfast area is far too small, making it difficult to find seating during busy times.

    family-friendly breakfast
    spacious accommodations
    tight parking

    We stayed here with our two adult kids and loved being close to SeaWorld! The breakfast offered a delicious variety, including turkey sausage and some super soft cinnamon rolls. The staff was incredibly helpful, and our room was comfortable and spacious, perfect for our family.

    In my wife's opinion, parking was a bit of a hassle. It would be great if families with kids had more straightforward access to parking without the need to maneuver tight spots.

    good breakfast
    tight parking
    early housekeeping

    The hotel had a charming atmosphere with friendly staff. Check-in was easy, and our room was clean and comfortable, with nice soft sheets that I loved. The breakfast offered a good selection, enough to satisfy everyone's needs. The location was convenient, close to SeaWorld and other attractions, but I did have some issues with parking. The garage area felt a bit tight, and on one occasion, I had trouble maneuvering out due to surrounding vehicles. Additionally, the pool was located in an awkward spot by the parking garage, which didn’t invite a relaxing swim. One morning, housekeeping knocked on our door a bit too early, waking us up before we had a chance to check out. That was frustrating since we wanted to catch up on some sleep. Overall, my stay was enjoyable due to the lovely room and breakfast, but improvements in parking and housekeeping schedules could make it even better.

    comfortable stay

    It was just a proper fit for a fleeting moment in San Diego with excellent value for money. The sheets felt unusually soft, which made for a comfortable night’s sleep. Try to arrive early to get parking.
