Another excellent stay at our favorite hotel. Benjamin was the perfect host and helped us with our room and parking pass. We always ask for the same room, as it was the first one we occupied, and is perfect for our needs. We were glad to have such a welcoming host and have already made another reservation.

The Good: Great location in Coronado for a reasonable price. Right across the street from the beautiful Hotel Del. Close to lots of restaurants and shopping along Orange Ave. The Bad: Had to switch rooms due to thin walls and noise next door. Some of the rooms are right by/over a Mexican restaurant that closes at 9pm but still noise from staff cleaning and prepping. Parking is a challenge if you don't want to pay $40/day for a garage.
