Un buen lugar para pocos días en San Diego
Pros:

La atención fue muy buena, todas las personas que me atendieron en el hotel siempre estuvieron muy dispuestos a colaborarme en todo lo que necesitara. Nuevamente lo mencionó las personas son muy amables.

Cons:

No me gustó que me cobraron USD40 dólares por el uso del parqueadero, además que los parqueaderos son extremadamente estrechos, el desayuno es regular todos los días ofrecen el mismo menú, deberían mejorar la oferta del menú y también el espacio dispuesto es muy estrecho el lugar para desayunar, se copa con muy poca gente pero en términos generales el hotel es recomendado.

Comfortable
Pros:

Location was great as it was close to the marina and also easy access to several attractions. Has all the basic facilities including a decent breakfast offering. The staff were helpful and the hotel does provide parking for those arriving with personal transport.
The room was comfortable and clean.

Cons:

The property seems bit old so could do with a bit of refurbishing given it’s part of Hilton.

Stressful and disappointing
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Lost power for over 3 hours. Couldn’t yes room key. Couldn’t yes elevator. No AC. Tried to get switched to another hotel. Called Hilton direct and they were of NO help. Had 3 grandchildren with me and had early flight next day. Facility was ok but Hilton experience was totally unprofessional and disappointing. Will think twice about staying at a Hilton again.

Pros:

Top Lage, Frühstück auch ok Zimmer auch gut

Cons:

Wir hatten für 2 Nächte gebucht und ein Zimmer bekommen das schlicht weg eine Zumutung war Bezug namen der Aussicht, Zimmer 209.
Für Rund 700 Dollar ein Blick auf eine Mauer vom Gegenüber liegendem Gebäude.
Erst nach massiver Beschwerde mit Foto gab es ein sehr gutes Zimmer mit toller Aussicht

comodo
Pros:

El hotel está super bien ubicado, a espaldas queda la estación de trolley Little Italy y a unos pasos de la playa. La recepción fue muy amable al ofrecerme Early Check in, ya que mi llegada al hotel fue unas horas antes al ingreso.
