Christmas 2025

Robert S on Dec 29, 2025

I had reserved a 2 night stay; however we couldn't check in the first night because they overbooked the rooms and no 2 queen rooms were available. Had to go somewhere else that night. Was able to check in the next day. The room was fine but no hot water in sink but the shower had hot water. They did comp my parking for the one night stay.

Quiet Street

timonadventure (Philippines) on Dec 27, 2025

Nice room. Convenient and quiet neighborhood. Front desk is eager to sell parking for 26 bucks a night. Parking is available in front of the hotel for free on the street. Nice outdoor pool and heated.

Cancel Policy Poor

Tom N on Dec 20, 2025

This hotel has a variable cancellation policy. 1 week before my actual visit, I had to cancel the reservation. I did so within the 24 hr window, but the policy did not specify it had to be 24 hrs before 4pm. The hotel refused to remove my credit card charge for that 1st night and even refused to speak with the manager in person. The next week, during my actual visit the cancel policy was changed to 24 hrs before 6pm but did not have to use it. They also gave me a hard time about the San Diego occupancy tax exemption and did not email me a receipt after checkout like they promised. I would caution against this hotel if you think you need to delay or cancel your trip.
