Pros:

Wir wurden außergewöhnlich freundlich empfangen. Das Zimmer war ausreichend groß für drei Personen. Fenster mit Fliegengittern. Wir haben trotz offenem Fenster nachts nichts von der Straße gehört. Die Lage ist sehr gut, man kann fast alles zu Fuß machen. Oder sich eins der Räder leihen. Tolle und ruhige Lage, man kann mit der Fähre (sehr teurer) nach San Diego rüberfahren. Pool war schön und gepflegt. Es gab den ganzen Tag Kaffee und sehr leckere Cookies. Wasserflaschen konnte man mit gefiltertem Wasser auffüllen.

Cons:

Die Räder haben ihre besten Zeiten hinter sich.

Got to see all of Coronado using their bikes beach towels and central location
Pros:

We really liked how central the hotel was on the island and loved having the bikes to use too. We did not have a car so the ease of transport was super nice when not wanting to walk. The cleaning staff were also super sweet and left our room sparkling. Maricia was very patient when we needed to run in and out of the room and gave us lovely advise for our last day in Coronado.

Cons:

Not much! We didn’t get to try the bistro :(

Overall nice place but they need to get their story straight when informing customers
Pros:

Room was clean and fresh

Cons:

Customer service. Arrived early and was just chilling in the lobby when the receptionist told us our room was being cleaned and would be ready in 30-60 min tops. 1 hr later we returned and saw 3 other couples get their room while we waited another 40 minutes....not nice.

Parfait. Parfait, parfait
Pros:

Parfait. Énormément de services gratuits et précieux comme des chaises pliables pour la plage, des essuis de plage, des petits cookies et de l'iced tea a la réception. Service au top et sympathique.
Un des meilleurs rapport qualité-prix de notre road trip aux USA.

Charming, cozy, clean, convenient Coronado stay!!
Pros:

Such a charming hotel! I loved that the rooms were off an inner courtyard and not right off the street. The design details were fabulous and really added to the warm yet classy ambiance, and everything was clean and well maintained. The location was great being halfway between the two top areas on Coronado: 1) the Ferry Landing area, and 2) the shops and restaurants off of Orange Ave in close proximity to the Hotel Del Coronado. And yet, it was tucked away enough to have a little quiet away from the busiest areas. Having access to free bicycles was a bonus!

A gem location for a Coronado/San Diego visit
Pros:

Crown City was a darling boutique type inn that felt very much a part of Coronado’s history and cultural vibe. The landscaping with palm trees and succulents, the Spanish tiled structure with the small salt water pool — made us feel immediately connected into Southern California. The rooms are not what I would call luxury but they are clean and comfortable and the service was top tier and the location is convenient to walking either to beaches and shopping or over to ferry to San Diego. The hotel restaurant was some of the best we had on the trip and we had a lot of good food all over. The eggs Benedict! I’ve never had better!

Cons:

The only thing i would change is the room AC which ran in frequent intervals and rather noisily!

Pros:

We were on Coronado Island for the Nascar races, and the location was perfect. Just a short drive up to the base, and an equally short drive down to the beach.

Cons:

Bathroom was a bit small, but it fit the style of the inn. Having the AC mounted in the corner by the bathroom was a weird location, forcing you to leave it on longer to cool the room down.

It was a short stay. The lady at check in was very nice.
Pros:

The location

Cons:

I am not a young person and I had to carry my heavy bag upstairs 😞
Also a magnifying mirror would have been nice.

We had an enjoyable time and glad we came before the busyness of the season starts up.
Pros:

We did like the location, the room was very clean, the atmosphere was quiet and felt safe. Hope to tell others about our fine experience.

Cons:

The room was a little snug but it was very comfortable overall. We would definitely plan on coming back again. We liked the comfortable bedding especially the pillows.
