Very nice hotel, great central San Diego location. Seems very safe and the rooms and property was super clean and well maintained. I also enjoyed the Tesla charging stations (brought my Tesla), so that is a huge perk for EV drivers.
Nice landscaping throughout

Property is in a preferred area. Away from typical San Diego tourist attractions. This is more of a business environment. Parking spots are a bit tight, though. Makes it difficult to enter or exit vehicles. Staff is very friendly, courteous, and professional. The breakfast buffet and bistro in the lobby are convenient. Starbucks coffee sold on-site.
Food from the breakfast buffet includes, eggs bacon, potatoes, pancakes, toast, etc.
Sofa bed is large enough for 2 adults to fit comfortably.
