Exceeded my expectations

For the price we paid, I thought we would get an ugly, low budget room, but our Room was actually nice and comfy for the kids. A bit small, but it didn't seem to bother either one of the kids. There's a restaurant downstairs and there's fast food restaurants across from the fwy, stores, etc. Staff was really nice and friendly. Check in and check out was quick and easy. Would definitely stay here again.

Easy access and modern decor

This is a very nice hotel. Clean with modern decor. The staff was very friendly and the location was easy to get to. It's about 10-15 minutes from the airport just off of 163. There are lots of fast food locations just north on Clairemont Mesa Blvd if you need a quick bite to eat. The only negative is that because it is so close to 163, it can be quite noisy with traffic if you leave the balcony door open. With the door closed, however, you don't notice it at all. Overall a great experience.

nice hotel

All in all, a nice hotel and I have no complaint about the staff, they were all very nice and helpful. The only issue I had was with their hours of operation. Lunch was only served 11:30am - 1:30pm and didn't open for dinner until 5pm. The bar didn't open to 4pm so you couldn't have a drink and sit by the pool unless you liked the 5 or 6 types of beers that they had in the refrigerators by the front desk. Like I said, the hotel staff was all very pleasant and courteous so kudos to that.
