Good enough stay but nothing special
Pros:

The location was fine even though we stay there to go to La Jolla beach. Anything closer would be much more expensive. It was comfortable enough and clean. Nothing special.

Cons:

Considering it’s San Diego there’s more of a chance that it’s an older building and decor seemed dated, especially the carpeting.
Also due to being in San Diego, everything is pricey, the breakfast, even though we had free breakfast they leave the bill fold for you to sign, which gives you the opportunity to tip, even though tip is already included.
They bring coffee and water/juice to you. Sometimes I’d rather get it myself because small glasses and I was thirsty and it makes you feel to tip.
Parking is a $42 each night and our small SUV could barely park in the narrow lanes.
Beds were fine. Bathroom etc feels dated and for a Marriott I thought it would be better. Set up for conferences more than anything else.

The hotel itself and the staff were great, no complaints at all.
Cons:

Prices were very expensive for food/ drinks/ snacks and parking in the lot was very expensive. The cost doesn’t need to be so expensive.

Great location, comfortable.
Pros:

Great location!

Cons:

A little dated, more focused on business travellers and neglects the leisure guests. Needs more comfortable furniture by the pool. Staff could be more friendly.

M Club
Pros:

My family and I have been staying here for the past few days. With that being said Hala Ayoob has become a great friend over the course of our trip. Hala works in the M Club and from the start she has always greeted us with a smile, a laugh, and a helpful hand. She is like this with all of her customers and through her greetings we can all see how hard she works. We will forever be grateful to Hala and will always remember our new friend. We love you Hala all the way from Jersey!

Booking one thing, getting something else, and additional charges
Cons:

#1 - Booked through booking 2 full beds. Got at checkin 1 king bed. Very Bad.
#2 - There was no parking price at booking. Later they sent $36 per night though booking message. At checkout, they charged $42. Very Bad.

The Best Check in Ever
Pros:

I had an outstanding stay, and I want to give special recognition to Delia, the Front Desk Supervisor. From the moment I arrived, she greeted me with a warm smile and exceptional professionalism. She went above and beyond to ensure my check-in was smooth and that all my needs were taken care of throughout my stay.

Delia’s attention to detail, genuine kindness, and commitment to outstanding guest service truly made a difference. She exemplifies what great hospitality is all about and is a tremendous asset to the hotel. Thanks to her dedication, my experience was memorable, and I look forward to returning.

Thank you, Delia, for making my stay so enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for excellent service and a welcoming atmosphere!
