Great stay and location!
Pros:

The hotel was clean, comfortable, and the best part was the location. You could walk to the water and to tons of restaurants located in Little Italy.

Cons:

Not a complaint but the pool was more indoor with a very small portion outdoor.

Hotel was in a good location but needs to be clearer about the 2 hotels in one thing.
Pros:

Cole to the port for our cruise

Cons:

This was 2 hotels in one building so you couldn’t use all the facilities. Tried to get breakfast on a Saturday and our sides breakfast closed at 9 but the other side was open until 10 but we couldn’t go there. Had to leave the property to find breakfast.

Pros:

Clean, spacious and comfortable room.

Cons:

Was offered a bay view room, only to find the window was obstructed by the hotel's sign. For a one night stay in San Diego, it was a disappointment
