I want to stay here again, my friend lives in San Pedro and she takes care of her 90 year old grandma so I have to stay
Pros:

The pool, beds were comfortable.

Cons:

It took me 6 times to make the reservation. I got hung up on a few times. I went from a $300 stay to a $508 stay then called the next day and my reservation could not be found. So I paid again! This time the cost was $630!!! Plus parking. I was told I would get a refrigerator soon as I checked in, I did not. They had no one to bring one to me. No bellman, I loaded all my bags. I then took the bell cart down and moved my car. I was told I would get a “tub” not shower/tub small. I was told I was getting a suite, that didn’t happen either. When checking in I asked if they could credit me a breakfast or two, no. I had to call for a fridge the next morning since all my colds were getting hot and I had to throw away. They did not apply my points to my room only when I asked. (I think) The first day in the pool it was full of hair and bugs. I asked a maid through the fence for someone to sweep the pool. The next day the pool was nice and clean. The hot tub however was green. It was just one thing after another!

Cons:

Aria condizionata provvisoria, malgrado quella originale funzionasse, che ha comportato di dover lasciare aperta la finestra, che dava sulla strada, per tutto il soggiorno. Non vi dico il distrurbo del traffico sun un’arteria principale

I was happy with hotel and location and will probably book again and just call to get clarity !
Cons:

We booked thru booking.com and it was deceiving because I never feek disclosures are made with prices . I was advised at checkin that there was a fee for parking and my pet . This wasn’t made clear ahead of time. I find this frustrating . It is a lovely place and young lady I made aware did comp me for parking which is was happy about . I also believed I booked king bed and we ended up with queen ???

It's Decent, but could be better
Pros:

The location is nice. It's close to Cabrillo Marine Aquarium and a small beach with a playground. Food places are a short drive, and the view was good. The hotel has excellent water pressure, and the shampoo & condition are good too (not watery like other places I've stayed). The security guard was a friendly face and immediately acknowledged that I was there. Housekeeping was also friendly and did a great job in cleaning our room.

Cons:

Our bathroom didn't have a working exhaust fan, and the lights were quite dim. The balcony furniture should be cleaned regularly, as it was dusty, had bird droppings, and the lounge chair had a large hole in it. If you get a room with a balcony, be prepared to see what your neighbor is doing. The balcony walls are short and you can easily see into other guests' rooms.
I paid extra for breakfast to be included in my stay, however, I didn't receive my vouchers for the first morning. The gentleman at the front gave me the vouchers, and advised that they should've been put under our door. Yet, on the second morning, we still didn't have breakfast vouchers. 🤔
Parking is $25 per night, and all meal tickets charge a 20% gratuity, even the "included breakfast." The pictures on their site show a full breakfast buffet, but that isn't the case at all. Everything is pre-plated in the kitchen, which you order from a menu. We chose the "American breakfast" plates, and let me just say, the food is nowhere near the amount they charge for it.
Overall, the stay was decent, but for what you're being charged, it could be better. I was underwhelmed, because I was expecting to have my experience match others' reviews, and that didn't happen.
