Overall great place. WiFi was not great. The connection would drop often which isn’t great if you are staying there for work or need to work online. Definitely something they should remedy as it was often over the 6 days we were there.

the person checking me in was new and didn't really know what he was doing, and I had to wait extra time for a working employee who has not been fully trained. My room was not cleaned the first night and when I asked why, I was told they cleaned the rooms every other day. The Sheraton Mission Valley in San Diego cleaned my room every single day.
