Great location, fair hotel
Pro: The location. you are right across the street from the bay. If you don't like the food offered in the hotel there are two more restaurants just across the street and it is just a short walk to the USS Midway and Seaport Village. The trolley tour also has a ticket booth and stop just across the road. The area is well lit and I felt quite safe walking back at night. The staff were friendly and helped me when ever I had any issues. The room was of a fair size and it had the best shower of all the hotels I stayed in on the trip. The pub "The Elephant and Castle" is also quite good and they do a very nice steak at a good price.
Cons: It is close to the airport and where cruise ships dock so it could get noisy for some people but personally I found the noise level acceptable. Not all the balcony rooms get a great view. My view was of half of the pool and the exercise centre. But then if I wanted to see the bay all I had to do was go down the elevator and cross the road. There are some homeless people who gather beside the bay but I never felt uneasy at any point.
Overall: Exciting place to stay? No. But a good place to stay while exploring San Diego? Yes. Especially if you can get a good rate.
