My family and I had a wonderful stay at the Westgate Hotel. The lady at check-in actually spent a few minutes highlighting the things we can do in the area and the places for live music for a couples night out. We were upgraded to a premium room because of my Expedia level; the decor was very nice and the rooms were spacious and comfortable.

Noisy & transient views
The hotel design was really nice but the carpet in the room had huge stains. The hotel building was next to the train tracks and the noise was annoying especially when you were trying to sleep in. The view outside the window not pleasant at all, transients were the only visible view.

Property was nice but the walls are super thin. I was up multiple times throughout the night due to sirens and other city noise. Had to keep the television on to help block out some of the noise.

All staff was very friendly and accommodating. Easy 15 minute walk to Petco Park, to the Marina with fantastic shopping and food and to little Italy. The pool had great sun loungers, lots of umbrellas and decent food and drink menu. There was even complimentary chair massages at the pool! I will definitely stay there again!

The hotel is pretty old and smells musty (at least the 17th floor and rooms did). Our shower was clogged every day and they couldn’t fix it. We also had black mold in our bathroom. However, all of the staff were helpful and amazing. We ended up switching rooms. The spa and massage therapists were wonderful. The pool area was really nice too but crowded. If it weren’t for the attentive staff, we would have switched hotels.

It’s in downtown SD so not very clean, the property itself is Clean but old and dusty. The rooms smell old, and had a creepy locked door in the rooms looks like it’s a secret passage, behind the bathroom mirror. The service was bad, front desk rude. Parking is charged different than what is advertised, and when I brought it up I was told I was wrong. Even when I had screen shots. Paid $25 for a watered down margarita at the pool bar. But was billed for breakfast at $54. I have been charged for 3 overnight parkings stays but stayed one night, left early because of the bad service. I have called back 4 times to have someone walk over the charges with me and keep getting the round around. Was promised a call back from a David and still no call back 4 days later. Now the charges reflecting on my bill have doubled and no one can resolve anything for me. Please learn from me, and avoid staying here.
