Top American Plaza Hotel Reviews

Little Italy Inn - Limited Service Apart Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always willing to help."

The DEXTRO Little Italy, BW Premier Collection

8/10 Good

"Misrepresentation the cost of of breakfast cost and parking. On Expedia they said breakfast was included and parking was $35. The breakfast was basic continental. With mediocre quality. The rooms were nice, I have no complaints. The staff were also excellent."

Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Downtown Little Italy

8/10 Good

"The rooms were clean and up to date, staff were friendly and helpful, the balcony was needing some attention for paint, no outdoor furniture and noted the same issue to other balconies. The sliders did not close properly could be an issue for kids and the latch. Parking was included in the stay, but do not bring a large vehicle could prove an issue when parking in their underground spaces. Plenty of electrical outlets for ECars."

The Westin San Diego Bayview

8/10 Good

"The rooms were great and the view we got was awesome. I understand parking is difficult but the pricing for Valet parking was expensive, $65 per night. I realized too late that the valet was simply driving my car across from the hotel. Frankly I could have done that myself and saved some money. There was some construction going on, maybe they are building their own parking spot? Aside from the parking, the experience was good."
