The service and accommodations at this hotel was like how hotels used to treat their guests- with extra little perks and very friendly people working there! I have stayed at several in the area and this hotel far exceeds all the others in all areas for a very good price. The employees here were so helpful when needed and acknowledged you in a super nice manner. The room was spic and span and very comfortable. It has easy access from the freeway and easy parking. For me it is 5+ stars! I will be back next time I visit my family in San Diego.
