Liked: Cleanliness
I liked that it was within walking distance to coffee shops and restaurants. I liked that it was easy to find on the main road and next to other hotels. For most part it was quiet. I stayed 2 nights. 1st night was good! 2nd night I kept hearing this loud sound repetitively for most of the evening until probably about 1030/1130pm that sounded like someone was moving furniture or something above our floor. So I did not sleep until late. It was also really cold in the room. Could not change the temp of AC or even turn it off.

While the building is older, they have tastefully updated it. The rooms and property is very clean. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Delicious breakfast. Breakfast staff are happy and quick to make sure food is always refilled and hot. Great location with easy Lyft/Uber access to the city and attractions. Would recommend.

If you want to stay at a smoking motel with cigarette butts in a cup on your balcony upon checking into your nonsmoking room, and have no possible chance of sleep between the road noise and kids running around, this is the place for you. I made several attempts prior to my stay to make sure I got a satisfactory room but there were none here if you don’t want loud road noise. I left as there wasn’t any way I was staying here. I went to where I normally stay. The staff member with long fake eyelashes acted like she was doing me a favor by checking me in - I think she needs a new profession that doesn’t involve customer service. I cannot recommend this hotel. They would not refund me either. I’m a very frequent traveler and don’t mind budget hotels for a night when needing to be close to the airport for a flight but my bayside super quiet hotel with amazing staff and much better amenities accommodated my move for an even cheaper price. Stay elsewhere. Unless you like smoke, noise and kids everywhere.
Concrete butts from last guest on balcony of nonsmoking room.

We had just checked out of the BW Coronado Island and decided to stay another night in San Diego. We decided to stay here..price was right for holiday weekend. Easy to get to. Area quiet. Check in quick. Assigned rooms A/C did not work and mattress was terrible. Asked to be moved, which they did. Second room was better, A/C worked, mattress not as worn and CLEAN which is most important to me. Parking plentiful. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. This is just an average hotel nothing fancy but I do have to say their breakfast is definitely above average for a hotel of this price and if your feeding your kids before any activity this place pays for itself. I would def stay here again.

My stay at this hotel was disappointing. One day, my room wasn’t cleaned at all, which is unacceptable. On top of that, the hotel is extremely noisy — I could hear everything from the hallways and neighboring rooms, making it hard to relax or get a good night’s sleep. Overall, not a comfortable or pleasant experience. I wouldn’t stay here again

Decent hotel around 4.5 miles out from downtown San Diego. Breakfast was included, which was limited but adequate to start your day. Room was good with a balcony although minimal storage space but ok for a couple of days stay. Hotel was kept clean & tidy. There was also free parking at the hotel, which was good to have. Small swimming pool on site, ehich was good for children. Opposite was a marina with some decent eateries. Hotel was approx 15 mintues walk from Shelter Island.
