Great Hotel
Just had a Fabulous 8 night stay here from the 27th June.
Before and after my stay i have read many reviews on here and i am quite surprised at the few bad reviews that are posted re this Hotel.
Our room on the 19th floor had wonderful views of the Bay and City. I was a bit worried about this as we had paid for a room with a Bay view and did not expect to be able to see the City skyline and had read all the reviews that warn you of the noise that can be heard from the city view rooms that come from the train lines that are right across the road !
It is true that you can hear the warning bells from the barriers and the horn from the city trolleys but niether are a problem. The Horn from the very large Freight train that passes by i think twice a day ( one in the middle of the night ) was more of an issue but saying that we were only disturbed twice during the eight nights so not much of a problem at all.
For me a visitor from England i thought the whole train thing outside the Hotel added Charm to the experience, the track goes the whole way down the bay so if it is a problem it is shared by every other Hotel and private property in the area !
We did'nt use the Hotel facilities too much as we were always out and about around the city but the staff on reception etc were all top class. The pool area is very pretty with room to sit or lie around in the sun. Everytime we asked we were given as much help and advise as was needed about getting around the city or attactions etc.
The rooms are in my mind excellent ( although we did not have a bath tub as i believed we would get ) and cleaned to a high standard every day. I was not aware there was a water taxi across to Coronada so perhaps that should have been advertised better !
There is a UP's room where you can check in on line for your flight home as well as Flight information, news etc supplied on touch screen equiptment in several areas. There is plenty of room around the Hotel to sit and relax or just Chill a little.
A Star Bucks, a gift shop, a cafe, a gym and restaurants, all you need.
I would definatly recommend this Hotel to anyone and by the way San Diego is a Wonderfull City x Shame about the Fireworks on the 4th ! x
