"The property was nice overall. Safe parking available, the room was clean, but not perfectly clean. I mean, yes, the sheets were clean, towels also very clean, but the building overall seemed like some renovations could be done. I would however recommend this hotel for the price offered! Not too expensive. The staff was nice! No breakfast available, but Panera just in the parking lot."

"We really enjoyed our 3 day stay here. It was pet friendly but highly suggest a first floor room because there are no elevators here. Our room was right by one of the pools and liked how there was a sliding door to the grass area for our dog to walk. The pool was nice and refreshing. Also enjoyed access to the Marina and bike rental place. It was a little loud with the pool music playing until 10:00pm so suggest staying in 700-800 bldgs if you want some peace and quiet. Also did not like...

"Nice little spot away from the hustle and bustle of San Diego downtown. Close to SeaWorld and not too far from the airport. It’s on a little reclaimed island and has a lot of activities to do, or not do. The bungalows are cool, mid-century built and in little villages. There are multiple pools and gardens… making it possible to be in the center of things or in a more relaxed place. The beach surrounding the resort is pretty but it’s not the best beach in San Diego in terms of actually going to...

"Overall great stay. Rooms are spacious, restaurant is good, has everything you might be looking for. The things to know before booking at this property is that the hotel parking is limited, which isn't a big problem because there's a parking lot across the street. The property is right on the ocean, so expect the kind of facilities degradation that comes with oceanfront properties. Staff are friendly."

The location was our favorite part! It’s right off the freeway so it made transportation so easy. This hotel was close to many different tourist locations.
