Home Run Experience
Pros:

My wife and I had an electrical fire at our house, and the Marriott Residence Inn Sorrento Valley was part of our rescue team! I'll tell you, if I ever need to call someplace else home, I've got Marriott Residence Inn on speed dial. Their Sorrento Valley location delivered when we needed them. Generous hot breakfast, inviting pool & hot tub, gym, and a room that felt like a getaway. The front desk staff were exceptionally helpful. All the staff really were remarkably friendly and welcoming. For us, it felt like we were staying with family while we got through a tough situation. Hats off to their entire operation, truly.

Convenient and comfortable for access to event Suggestions are achievable to bring up to next level.
Pros:

Staff was attentive and nice. I appreciated the pool and kitchenette,although no time to use them. Big rooms. Breakfast had a good assortment. Bed and pillows were comfortable. Clever idea to have the TV pivot to both living and bedroom.

Cons:

Decor was dated and dark. Update the wood tone. Shower head offered no water pressure. Air conditioning room door rattled and fans came on with loudness every 1.5 hours interrupting my ability to sleep. I had to rurn it off the next night. The area has very few options for entertainment,only 2 dining options in walking distance and no stores. About 40 minutes to Petco Park,downtown and airport added around $230 to our stay in Uber costs.The Treehouse Cafe was impressive- fantastic food and service! Gravity Bar was good too.The Residence Inn and convention building need to negotiate a gate to pass through to each site using a hotel access card. It's a long walk in heels.

Nice big comfortable room, kitchenette, parking is not free!
Pros:

Very large and comfortable room, fridge and microwave, pretty good breakfast, not too far from the coast and La Jolla (8-10 miles). The bed was comfortable and it was nice to have the kitchenette.

Cons:

We were not told (or we didn't notice) that there's a parking fee ($20 a day as I recall), which, considering that it's on the fringes of the city means it would be hard to get there without a car. Had we known would probably have booked somewhere else with free parking. However, after our protestations, the staff (who were generally pleasant) allowed us to waive the parking fee.

Love this hotel
Pros:

Love this hotel, second time here. The staffs were so friendly and welcoming, especially Jauad and Carol and others at the breakfast. Carol would give crafts to small kids and check on all the tables. Just appreciated how they treat all the guests.

Would return!
Pros:

Nice stay! Great staff at this hotel. Accommodating, friendly, and competent. Enjoyed the breakfast and the very friendly staff...especially nice for a morning greeting instead of from someone who grumbles and doesn't want to be at work. Rooms are fine...some areas show wear, but it didn't impact my quality of life or attitude for the day. Would definitely return.

Good place, wonderful staff. V good breakfast
Pros:

Residence in is a great concept for an extended stay.
All of the staff were competent and friendly. But the kitchen staff (chef and woman cleaning and replenishing food) were exceptional! Always welcoming and genuinely friendly

Cons:

1. Really did not appreciate having a $20/day parking fee. Not in this part of town. 2. Somehow our reservation got mixed up (I think they reversed my first and last name) was hard to find 3. It was incredibly hard to call the hotel directly before our arrival. When I tried to call the hotel directly, to confirm my reservation, I kept getting routed to a phone center inn India? I tried to ask questions and could not understand or get answers (partly because of the mix-up in my reservation)
