Close, convenient and clean
This property is adjacent to the San Diego Convention Center, so it is quite convenient if you are an attendee, but it is also close to Seaport Village and Gaslamp District for dining and entertainment. I have some back impairment, yet I was able to make the walk, so that gives you a clue how accessible everything is. We stayed in a lovely 10th floor room in the south tower facing the marina and pool area, and it was absolutely gorgeous! The room was spacious and clean with a great desk area but no table to share in-room dining with. There was also a nice, comfy oversized chair, refrigerator (no mini bar, just empty fridge) and coffee maker. The bathroom was also great because it was large and one of the few places with a GLASS shower door rather than those yucky curtains. The bad news would be if you want/need a tub rather than a large shower. My only peeve was that, surprisingly, there was not a single towel bar, so we couldn't hang up our hand towels unless we wanted to use a bar inside the shower. I've never seen that before. Pool area was tropical and one of the best I've seen. There were ponds and bubbling fountains around the perimeter along with contemporary seating and a few fire pits. For those wanting to enjoy a quiet spa, there is a 21 y/o and older tub in a secluded area. Wait service outdoors in pool area was good; they were friendly and accommodating. Prices pretty expensive though. There is a Starbucks inside but they close early (around 2:00) and I'm not sure why. You may also get sticker shock from the parking fee, a cool $26 per night. Ouch! Overall, a great hotel for business and family.
