"It’s a decent hotel more or less. Great location though."

"Room was clean. A nightlight in the bathroom would be nice. Also the bathtub did not drain well."

"Hotel is beautiful, very clean and very friendly staff. Perfect location for my stay. One and only complaint - needs better coffee and creamer :). I definitely would stay again. "

"Paying $75 for two days of parking is wild. "

"Excellent location. Clean rooms and excellent staff. Highly recommend. "

"Stayed here because of proximity to cruise port, which was very convenient. Room itself was fine but outdated. Hated the sliding barn-door style bathroom which really hindered bathroom privacy, and the lobby bathrooms weren't any better. Claim Jumper next door was a disappointment; had to send back the meal due to poor cooking. Altogether, would stay here for the port convenience but would look elsewhere if I was coming back to San Diego for another reason."

"The gym didn't have dumbbells, but other than that it was great overall "

"The staff was great but the room condition was pretty bad, the free water was opened and drank some and put back, bathroom door was extremely hard to close to were my 2 kids couldn't even close it. Then they charge $28 for parking and have the parking lot is taken over by construction equipment they should have waved the parking fee. Probably not use this hotel next time we come."

"This was a mother/daughter trip in March 2026. I had never been to San Diego before and had no idea what to expect on any level. I was so pleasantly surprised to find this property was not only wonderfully, centrally located, but relatively isolated in its position on the wharf. We didn't have the budget for frills and this property was just what worked for us, and I would definitely return to this property. "
