Nice clean place but no breakfast as was paid for.
Cons:

I paid so my staff could enjoy breakfast, as acknowledged on the website. My staff was turned away and told that it was not included. This is unacceptable.

We would likely stay there again if the need arises.
Pros:

Staff was nice, location was good for our needs on the short stay in town for parent weekend at SDSU which included the football game on Saturday night at Snapdragon.

Cons:

Not much, but a little awkward getting in and out of the hotel parking lot/freeway access.

Pros:

I have been a Hilton Honors member for a very long time. And I love all of the hotels. I've stayed in without having too many issues very, very, very small problems.

Cons:

On Saturday morning, getting app having a long day regarding a conference having to go to. I came down to see about having a really good breakfast to find out that all they were offering was a continental breakfast. Which did not work for me? Knowing that I would not be having a lunch. It would have been nice to have been told that breakfast was not going to be on the list for that date. It made me very upset to know that I would not be able to eat anything until dinner time. I kind of needed breakfast to get through to tell. Dinner time. This definitely would have been helpful to know. Had problems with the televisions in my room, both in bedroom and the living room, paying that kind of money for a suite and not having your t. V's working is an issue. The last issue was the bathroom with the fact the soap dispenser in the middle of the night fell down in the shower, but the little shelf that you could put your foot on to was raggedy and looked like it was ready to fall down itself. Massive different look that I've never seen in any Hilton Hotels. Having to go to the front desk to have maintenance, come in to fix the light on the headboard. Because they were not working was not good. I think the best way to do it is when rooms are being clean, supervisors should go through the rooms to make sure all lights are working. Plugs are working that way. When customers come in, they don't constantly have to call the desk to have somebody come in to fix things. I could not even use the phone to get a wake up call. And when I did get and go down to ask for one, it didn't work. I did not get a wake up call.

Clean and decent location.
Pros:

Good location and easy to get to off of Highway 15. Close to Walmart and restaurants.

Cons:

The staff member I dealt with, had no idea about which stairs could be used to go up to the third floor. I do not like elevators so I am always looking for stairs. Three times I tried to locate access that was not locked. I finally found a house cleaner that knew where I could go.

Close to SDSU
Pros:

The distance between the hotel SDSU, downtown and other places was convenient. Easy access to the freeway. I liked the bar and restaurant area to order a late dinner on our first exhausting night and a nice drink. Rooms were clean, spacious, and staff were accommodating and nice.

Cons:

The extra fee for continental breakfast included with your reservation isn’t worth buying. The only breakfast you get is dry cereal, oatmeal, yogurt, hard boiled egg, fruit, toast and sweet bread with coffee or juice. For an extra $20, you can get the hot eggs, potato’s, sausage or order from the restaurant. We went to eat downtown at Breakfast Republic for $15.

Pros:

Für ein Hilton Garden Inn okay. Nicht mehr das modernste, aber trotzdem in Ordnung. Das Hotel war das erste für uns nach der Ankunft in San Diego. Es war alles in der Nähe (McDonalds, Starbucks usw), das war für die erste Nacht super.

It was comfortable, the room and staff were nice.
Pros:

I liked it was easy to get to. The amenities were nice, staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The pool and spa weren’t as nice as I expected. I don’t think they should charge a parking fee, that should be included. Most hotels have free breakfast but this place didn’t.

This is my third time in a Hilton Hotel. My first 2 visits have been amazing but this one needs some work to do.
Pros:

The staff.

Cons:

Paid parking. No ice on ice machine. Jacuzzi did not throw hot water only warm. Toilet did not flush properly. Guest have to pay for water bottles that are inside the room which should be complementary.
