Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were very comfortable and well-appointed, clean, and had all the necessary amenities. Being directly above the pool area was a nice touch, and the room was clean and ready to go when I arrived.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were just as reserved, clean, and well-maintained, but I did notice a stained towel. The service was fantastic, with courteous and helpful staff. The location was convenient with nearby dining options like Panera and Chipotle, though I didn't get a chance to swim. The dining experience was great, despite a small disappointment with the lack of bacon. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few minor hiccups.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were nice and cool, despite overlooking the outdoor smoking area for Jimmy's, which could get a bit loud. Being close to a bar was convenient, and the noise from the crowd didn't disturb the rooms.
My stay at the Residence Inn in San Diego was fantastic! The rooms were comfortable, generously sized, and surprisingly quiet, which was a lovely bonus. The evening staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, going out of their way to assist me. The hotel is located in a convenient area with easy access to nearby stores and restaurants, making it very practical. The dining experience offered a good selection of hot and cold dishes, although it could have been more efficient. Overall, a great value for a pleasant stay.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were nice and clean with useful amenities, but I noticed mold in the vents of the AC unit. The service was friendly and helpful overall, but there were some issues managing busy times. The location was comfortable and relaxing, though it's a bit far from downtown. The dining experience was good with some highlights, but there were some disappointing elements. The facilities were adequate but could be improved.
The hotel is conveniently located near restaurants and gas stations, making it easy to find and access. The friendly staff provided great service, and the breakfast options were varied and fresh. However, the rooms were fairly plain, and the pool area was not up to par with other hotels.
