Omg this was a terrible hotel, I was in shock took my daughter for her birthday. Check was great room was not what was pictured, it had 2 different smells in the hall way like a mildew smell. The walls in hallway were nice but the curtains were old, I paid for an upgrade which included a balcony which was of a rooftop of the next building. I was soooo upset felt like a fool to my daughter. It spoiled my entire trip to San diego

Good hotel for the price. Comfortable bed, quiet, decent location (a few blocks away gets a little sketchy). Our room was pretty dark. Never receive the’VIP Experience/Perk’ that Expedia always promises. Hotel restaurants close their kitchens at 10pm - even on weekends. Dinner and drinks for four at Nobu - $900.
