This is an event hotel, a family hotel. Not for luxury or relaxation.

This hotel is quite a distance from downtown San Diego.
Our rooms were bungalows on the outskirts of the property next to a large event tent.

This hotel is quite a distance from downtown San Diego.
Our rooms were bungalows on the outskirts of the property next to a large event tent.
On Saturday night of our stay, there was a very festive wedding reception. The music had our room shaking until about 10:45. Although we made the best of it, we had to leave our room for a break from the base boom.
The rooms (because we had two rooms) were old and uninviting and we couldn't walk barefoot the floor was so dirty. Also many a champaign cork has hit the ceiling.
The pool area was tight and crowded. The water was cloudy. However, the food and beverage service at the pool was excellent.
Being next to the harbor is nice.

Decent but huge unforced errors

Breakfast, either made-to-order or buffet , was bad and not worth the money. Front desk was understaffed and always long lines in the lobby. Pool was nice. Poolside restaurant had poor service, limited menu, Fold out sofa bed was unusable. Horrible. Hotel did have roll-out beds that were better but for some reason promised a queen which did not…

We did get two full-size roll out beds. Hotel ran out of water bottles.

Great staff - Property is in poor condition.

Staff was outstanding and tried to be as helpful as they could.
Pool was overcrowded- no loungers available.
Requested early check in but couldn’t get our room until just before 4pm.
Property is old and needing structural upgrades. We had a huge ant problem on the second floor and had to move to another room. That room was an upgrade, but had…

Old and Unkept Hotel

Overall disappointed with our choice to stay here. Hotel is old and unkept. We stayed in a 1 bedroom suite which is separate from the hotel - the lobby and elevator were dirty and did not appear to have been cleaned during our stay - 4d/3n.

Our bathroom shower was dirty as were cushions on the sofa and a few chairs. The cherry on top was the Daybed we rented at the pool - I don't think the cushions have ever been cleaned - covered in stains, food/debris on the base and table of the daybed. We will be sticking to Marriot Hotels moving forward.

I had been reading all of these reviews leading up to our visit and had been a little nervous about all of the mixed reviews this hotel had been getting. So I did set my expectations a bit low. Overall our stay was very good! We checked in on the early side and our room was ready. The man checking me in was names Oz I believe and he was just wonderful. He took a lot of time explaining all that the hotel had to offer and really made me feel as though we could ask for anything and he would be happy help. This really set the tone for our trip. It was a great way to start our vacation.
We are a family of five and had a room in the marina suites. The room was a bit outdated. The sleeper sofa cushions were worn and had water stains. I had already read about this so I was disappointed but not surprised. We used the sleeper sofa has a bed the whole time. We also got a roll away which fit right next to the sleeper sofa.
The maid service was good to very good. They gave us plenty of towels and waters.
The pool was very busy all the time and chairs were never available. We sat at the tables in the back for the poolside cafe which was fine.
We took advantage of the kayaking. It was so great. My girls really enjoyed it.
The location of this hotel was great. We loved our marina view.
Overall I would stay here again!
