Amazing! We will definitely be back again and I’ve already recommended the hotel to my friends.
Pros:

The hotel staff were all incredibly nice! From the front desk woman that checked us in to the bell hop that held our bags when we checked out. I feel like everyone went above and beyond to ensure we were happy.

Cons:

Honestly the only snag was when we added a bag to our group of luggage that the bell hop was already holding for us and it mistakenly got put on another cart and put in a different guest’s room. We had to wait a bit but the staff did everything they could to track the bag down and even offered us a drink while we were waiting. We eventually got the bag back and the staff were wonderful about everything. We really appreciated that they worked so hard to get the bag back to us.

Great stay near Gaslamp, Convention center and Petco Park!
Pros:

Easy walk to Gaslamp and convention center and ballpark.
Clean, very nice staff.

Cons:

Wish the pool bar was open. There was a gap where we couldn’t get a drink until the restaurant/bar downstairs opened @ 4pm. Pool was nice otherwise.

野球観戦のみの利用 ホテル
Pros:

ドジャースとパドレスの試合に利用しました。
球場が目の前で徒歩で３分ぐらいの所にあり、ナイター観戦が終わってすぐなので良かった。

Cons:

ドライヤーとコーヒーメーカーのコードか30センチぐらいしか無くなんのためにそんな不便な事をしたのか理解できない。
色んな面で理解できない事が多すぎる。
