The location of the property is close to tourist spots, mostly are walking distance . The hotel overall is clean and well maintained. The staff are friendly. The only thing i noticed was the towels. Some of them needs replacement. They are kind of old and worn out, some stitches are torn. But overall will come back and will recommend to friends.

The New York West restaurant was wonderful. We spent our $25 credit every day there. Jeopardy on Thursdays is Jeopardy night. Our gang of 10 loved it. The area around buffet and bar reeked of vomit daily. They mopped with a dirty mop. Ugh. Our only complaint. The hotel was beyond expectations.

The property is centrally located and very close to Seaport Village and some amazing spots in San Diego. That’s it! I am a Marriot Gold member and I am used to a few things when one checks-in.. example bottle of water! Surprising if you are not a Hilton Honors club you don’t get a bottle of water on check in. They don’t tell you this but they would charge $25 per day mandatory charge which they say they give it back to you to use in store and in restaurant. So no matter what you have to use that $25 even if you do not want to cuz they will charge you anyways. Top of it, room service charge is $10 to deliver the food to your room plus 18% gratuity so you end up paying more then $25.. such a ridiculous way to charge more. Overall ok property with great location.

Breakfast chefs were rude and rushed us thru the line. Only once line staff was nice and I wish I grabbed her name. Aside from her the three chefs were rude and one staffer I asked for gluten free bread from spoeared bother with the ask. People have food allergies such as myself, so mkre options would be great, and without the attitude. The stay otherwise was great, but id say the food st the Monterey Bay Embassy Suites was superior, including the staff.
