Pros:

Muhteşem kahvaltı. Fakat SERVİS ÇOK YAVAŞ

Cons:

house keeping is a disaster!! The house keeping is VERY SLOW. Two times I requested toilet paper to the room I waiteed for 1 hour. The amenities were terrible. A terrible single ply toilet paper! No shower caps, No cotton buds, No moisturizers, no slippers bo bathrobes.. Even upon asking, they say they do not have them. The manager is so unexperienced and not solution oriented. Constantly apologizing but doing nothing. the ladies at the front desk was nice and friendly and helpful.
The breakfast on the other hand is awesome however the service is too slow. And there was one lady at the restaurant with a constant FAKE GRIN on her face. Ugh!! so unbearable.. This was my second time at the hotel, first time it as Double tree. It was very good back then. will never stay at this hotel again. sorry.

Muito bom, mas barulhento…
Pros:

O hotel é muito bem localizado e super bonito. Todos foram muito simpáticos e educados e tudo funcionou bem.

Cons:

Não tem nada que abafe o som externo nas janelas, e por ter ficado em um quarto de frente para a rodovia, vazava muito barulho, na primeira noite foi mais difícil dormir.
Também achei que o restaurante tem pouca variedade de comidas.

Schönes Hotel in toller Lage, Frühstück a la Carte durch Auswahlmöglichkeiten erweitern
Pros:

Tolle Lage in Little Italy. Straßenbahn ebenfalls in der Nähe. Geräumige und saubere Zimmer mit Balkon.

Cons:

Das Frühstück - man muss a la Carte in einer reduzierten Auswahl ein Frühstück wählen, welches viel zu üppig ist. Idealer wäre unter gewissen Punkten auswählen zu können, z.B. will nur Toast mit Marmelade oder nur Omelette mit 2 Eiern, o.ä. Ein Getränk nur wählen zu dürfen ist einer Courtyard by Marriott Kette nicht würdig. Nehme ich Kaffee musste z.B. der Orangensaft bezahlt werden.

Great - would def stay again
Pros:

Lovely rooms , great location would def stay again. Nice to have fridge and microwave in room. Nice bar and lobby area. Did not have time to use pool or bar area.

Cons:

Couple of things - but not a deal breaker would have liked a light complementary continental breakfast and ceramic mugs rather than paper cups for hot drinks in rooms

Pros:

Разположението, на крачки от Малката Италия

Cons:

За 3 дни никой не ни почисти стаята, дограмата е стара и не изолира добре, много е шумно поради близостта на магистралата

Excellent place to stay in San Diego
Pros:

Staff are excellent and so helpful. The hotel lobby is beautiful. Rooms are spacious and clean, no complaints from us. Nice to have an easy to access, well stocked gym available also. Location is excellent for Little Italy and most things are walkable from the hotel.

Cons:

Pool could have been so much bigger and a hot tub would have been great, other than that the pool area is nice.
