“This Residence Inn hotel is located in downtown San Diego around a lot of attractions and restaurants. It is one of the cleanest Residence Inn my family and I have stayed in. During check-in, the front desk person, Vic took good care of us, answering my questions with respect, regard and dignity. He was very professional, kind and nice all at the same time. He made not just me and my children feel valued but also the guests before us that I saw him check-in. Staff like him in the hospitality business make your stay not only pleasant but assuring because when you receive such warm welcome at the beginning of your atay, you know your concerns will be well taken care of should you have any. Also, when I called for blankets and bedsheets, my request was met with immediate attention and service without the staff feeling bothered by it. I wish we stayed longer in this hotel. The breakfast was also good and the breakfast staff were fantastic! Always smiling and ready to assist with what guests needed. This is one place you want to stay if you’re travelling solo or with family.”

“I’ve stayed at this hotel multiple times. Pretty basic but decent hotel. I like the fact that there’s a kitchenette in each room with a full-size refrigerator. This last trip we were in an accessible room, even though we don’t require one, so some of the layout was a little weird. The free breakfast is always a nice touch and this particular hotel has a really nice selection of food. Location is hard to beat. My biggest complaint has to do with the comfort of the bed. The sheets would slide off easily, and after three nights there, my back was killing me. The pillow was super squishy which didn’t help.”

“Great room - huge. Great location downtown - close to convention site and baseball stadium. Nice staff. My only concern was I stayed on a Saturday night and my room was over Sixth street which is a very popular street. That was my bad for not paying attention to where they placed me.”
