Pros:

飯店離Westfield購物中心很近，飯店外靠步行就可以消磨掉一天。早餐有客製化蛋餅餡料挺實在，可以根據喜好調整不同口味，令人滿意。

Cons:

沙發床很大可以睡兩個大人，但是床體單薄感覺像直接睡在彈簧上，小孩子睡可能好一些，大人睡起來不是那麼舒服。

Nichts für uns, immerhin waren die Zimmer ruhig
Pros:

Betten waren sauber, es war leise, auch die Klimaanlage. Sie hat auch sehr gut funktioniert. Lage zum Shoppingcenter war super, ansonsten ok.

Cons:

Das Frühstück war eine einzige Massenabfertigung, es standen viele Menschen Schlange, Essbereich war dreckig, insgesamt wirklich so, dass keiner von uns dort essen wollte. Unsere Töchter haben tatsächlich nicht gefrühstückt.
Auch der Pool war voll mit kleinen Kindern.

WLAN war schwach, wir mussten uns immer wieder neu einloggen

Cons:

The staff was decent but the policies at this property are very unreasonable. Absolutely no perks to someone who has a Diamond status with Hilton properties. This property is very old and dirty. Needs serious upgrade and renovation.

Tired, outdated and crowded
Pros:

We have stayed at other Embassy Suites and have had generally positive experiences, so we were expecting the same at the La Jolla location. Sadly, we didn’t have the best experience. First, our room was so dark. I prefer natural light but we didn’t get a lot of that. Second, our furniture was falling apart. Extensive peeling on the couch and ottoman , to the point where some of parts that peeled off were scattered on the carpet. Also, housekeeping came and all they did was make the bed and take our towels. They didn’t even replace our towels or coffee, so we had to hunt down the housekeeping cart to replenish our supplies. While free breakfast and drinks/snacks at 5pm seems like an amazing perk, the lines were so long that waiting wasn’t worth it. We won’t be back.

Would not return for the price.
Pros:

Location to a conference we were attending.

Cons:

The rooms are SO dated! The couch and chairs were peeking. Literally, crappy vinyl was perking off furniture. There was mold in the bathroom shower and tile grout was exceedingly dirty. The parking was $46 a day. Ridiculous!!!

Excellent
Pros:

Amber was great. Greeted with a smile at 11pm when we arrived and made the check in a breeze. To my surprise she was also at checkout with same smile and attention to detail. She deserves a 11 out of 10 and made our stay pleasant

Fantastic experience!
Pros:

This is our 3rd time staying at this hotel. We are a soccer club that travels every other year to San Diego for a big tournament. We have 7 teams that stayed here. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure everything is going well! Kudos to Monica and her amazing staff! I highly recommend making your stay here!

Nothing
