Great service!
Pros:

Rooms were great! Service was top notch! Levon at the front desk was so helpful, really next level! And at the pool- Isabella was the best! We had the pleasure of having her as our server for two days (one cabana day for my besties birthday and one just in general) and both days she was great! Will definitely book again!

Lovely Stay!💖✨
Pros:

I want to say that the customer service is outstanding at this hotel. I initially met the front desk concierge, Anna, and she was lovely. Very professional and friendly. She was very informative and answered all my questions about parking. I was working late but she made sure to call me update me on the status of my reservation and let me know that Adam would take care of me when I returned to the hotel after work, which he did. Adam was very nice and I appreciated the pass down and not being forgotten. Adam also helped me get a remote that was missing from my room really quick. I would also like to say thank you to Valet, especially Jordan, he is super friendly and got my car out very quickly. Thank you to the staff at Margaritaville SD Gaslamp for making my stay a wonderful one.

Pros:

I liked that our room overlooked the beautiful pool, which was soundproof. Couldn't hear any noise from the outside.
Our room was very roomy and spotlessly clean. Given 2 complimentary bottles of water plus a $30 credit upon check-in to use at their restaurant downstairs. Comfortable beds. I'd definitely stay here again.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing I could find fault with.

It’s a fun and clean hotel that’s near the stadium and shops
Pros:

Near everything, coffee shop was great in the lobby. Very clean

Cons:

The noise. I wish our room was on the other side. Our room faced the roof top bar and pool and the music and partying kept us up, but it was still a great time

Highly recommend!
Pros:

Writing this review after staying at a different hotel in San Diego and kicking myself for not just booking margaritaville. Everyone is SO nice. Shout out especially to the valet guys. I’m in and out a lot and they don’t mind at all! They’re so quick, efficient, kind, and helpful. Front desk staff is helpful too. My last stay there needed to be price adjustments and they did so easily and were kind. (Current hotel makes it seem like I’m annoying staff to do their actual job). The hotel food is ok. Nothing great, but tons of options within walking distance. Rooms are clean and very cute. Air works great. Definitely my go to for San Diego stays.
