10/10 Excellent
"Amazing stay, great staff, definitely recommend using Valet as the parking structure is extremely narrow to get in and out from. We stayed in the 1 bedroom suite with city view. It was very spacious, had great amenities, dishwasher, utensils, plates, paper towels, toaster, microwave. The double entry bathroom was a plus for us when our little one was sleeping. Definitely recommend, very clean, the staff were great. The bar and restaurant area was very comfortable, peaceful, and the food was great. Would 10/10 recommend. The area outside is also very safe with 24/7 valet service. The car was ready for pick up within 5-10 mins and Michael was a phenomenal valet driver! Took care of us the entire stay. Thank you Marriott San Diego!"

"I really enjoyed my stay here! The room was newly remodeled and very spacious for a queen room. The layout was a little awkward, and I did notice that the room was missing some wall art/decor, but overall it was clean, comfortable, and had a fresh, updated feel. The restroom was also really nice, especially the mirror! It had a great regular mirror and a 3x magnifying mirror, which was a huge plus for the girls getting ready. The staff was excellent! The young gentleman at the front desk was especially kind and welcoming, and the older gentleman was also very nice and helpful. Their customer service really made the stay even better. The location was another huge plus. Everything we needed was close by, which saved us a lot of gas and made getting around really convenient. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely consider staying here again!"

"The area surrounding this hotel was amazing. Saturday farmers market was really nice and the amount of places for eating and shopping within walking distance was great!! The only thing I would warn other about is the parking garage is made for compact cars and the cost was a little much but they have cheaper parking across the street that was much easier for us with a larger vehicle. All in all we had a beautiful trip and the stay was fantastic!!!!"
