Stay was pretty great. Hotel is fantastic value for money and in a great location in Hillcrest, walking distance to grocery stores, cafes, restaurants, bars, balboa park, etc. Only issue is that the water pressure in the shower was really poor but otherwise everything was great, all the staff were super friendly.

Great hotel, the location is very nice there is a lot of good food in the area and grocery stores. The staff is super friendly and very helpful. Rooms are very clean. I have stayed at the same hotel 2 years in a row for the San Diego Marathon, and each time I have been pleased. Parking is safe and convenient, but a bit on the pricy side.

The room is really small, but if all you need is a place to crash over night to explore the city.. it's a good place. 10 minutes from downtown San diego, clean.
