It was an ok stay
Pros:

It was close to everything! The rooms were quiet for the reasonable time. You had to use your key to get in so it felt safe.

Cons:

The vents must be shared/connected because we got the smoke from whoever was smoking weed the whole night.. I probably got contact high. The pillows were hard, like the down comforting was old. I was looking forward to a soft comfy bed and pillow like described on website but not the case at all.

Pros:

Slept good at night.

Cons:

Had to ask for a day pass to a local gym for any swimming or sauna or weight lifting. Was hard getting DoorDash to deliver to hotel cause there was a lot of traffic

Comfortable and fun intro to San Diego
Pros:

Convenient, affordable, close to lots, comfortable.

Cons:

Could provide a microwave and mini fridge in room would be nice. The shampoo is like paste. You need to provide something different. Left my hair like straw.
