The location is amazing if you want to stay somewhere that feels like a city. The staff is lovely and welcoming. Rooms are simple and functional, and I really appreciated the shared kitchen with coffee. I'm thinking of moving back to San Diego, and would readily stay here more long-term if I didn't have a pet.

The only thing about this place is the lobby was so very cold. The poor fellow managing the front desk also has to have a heater by him. He was so kind as to bring us a heater so we could at least wait for check in and stop our teeth from chattering.

Room didn’t even have a chair to sit in, instead you had to sit on the bed to watch tv or anything. The bathroom was TINY. If you’re a larger person, good luck! No heat. The bad was soft and the pillows were too much. Worst of all, NO COFFEE MAKER! Not even in the kitchen on the floor where we stayed. For me, that’s the deal breaker! We need coffee in the morning!

Clean and comfortable bed. Good location and assigned parking. Not the quietest place, as the hallways echo all footsteps and conversations. A rug in the hallway would do wonders.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Only giving 2 stars because the linens were crisp and clean. Entry gate to the parking area is closed and locked. Had to park in front of the gate blocking it to go to the front desk to check in and ask them to open the gate as I was blocking another car from entering. The front desk said they emailed me the code to enter the gate. Doubled checked my email again and I never did receive an email from them. Entering the parking structure is very precarious as the entry way to and from the parking stall is very narrow, barely enough room for another car going the opposite direction. Upon opening the door to our room there was an overpowering odor of a cleaning solution like Lysol. They must have used an entire bottle on our room. I can understand being sanitary but you still need to be able to breath comfortably. The bathroom door sticks so badly you need a hockey move called a hip check to get out. The beds were very uncomfortable, like sleeping on a carpeted floor. Noise from the freeway and other guests in the hallway kept us up most of the night. Was way overcharged for a 1 night stay, this room was not worth half what we paid.

Crushed!
Disappointing… there was no coffee maker or any snacks to buy.. being a new hotel, it had zero incentives.. too expensive to have nothing! There was no room service so we didn’t get clean towels. Will not be booking here again

The place is nice don’t get me wrong, only thing is no tv service unless you have your own Netflix, Hulu, etc. Not even just the local channels so that sucked. Also the AC is kinda weird, there’s an app involved.
