Nice but noisy
Nice place but its proximity to a major highway made it quite noisy. Next time I’ll stay at a hotel further away from the highways.

I was greeted by delightful Art at the front desk. But it went downhill from there. Getting to my room in a separate building was difficult. I was stunned when I entered the room. I’ve never been in such a small and stuffy room. It was San Diego in August and the a/c was off! Room was freakishly small. Felt very uncomfortable

I think this is the first negative review I have left on Expedia. I booked with holiday inn as it is a consistent hotel chain. Stayed last night and our room smelled like cat pee. We complained and they offered to move us but I have just had surgery and didn’t want to pack up everything. They said to speak to the manager in the morning. Housekeeping came into the room and confirmed the smell (with argument but did after) 8 am turned into 9, 9:30, manager will call you. I have now sat on hold for 20 minutes and was told she will call me. They are avoiding dealing with my unhappy stay and I wouldn’t have have to deal with this if they would have had the room clean and a strong odor removed.
