"The desk staff were friendly and helpful, as was the maintenance chap. The first night there I was still on England time so was wandering around with my coffee at 3 am to check where the pool was and enjoy the quiet, the night security guy was awesome too! The bed was clean and cozy and it was pretty swishy to have USB charger ports as part of the lamps. Never seen that before. The location is ideal for getting around on buses to explore a bunch of different areas of the city. Definitely grateful for a fridge in the room so I could get milk and have cereal in the mornings [VONS, Grocery Outlet and Target are all a short walk away] instead of shelling out 20-30 bucks a day for Denny's or IHOP! That would take half of my daily spending money right away, not to mention the detriment to health. The only not-so-great thing is the dusting... the top of electric outlets and drawer handles seemed to be overlooked [I'm a cleaner myself so tend to notice these things, maybe others wouldn't!], and a couple of times I'd put the "maid service please" sign on the door, I came back to find it hadn't been done at all. Still not at all worth making any formal complaint about because it had zero affect on what a monumental and glorious time I had in San Diego- just be aware that if these sorts of trivial matters would be important to you more than they were to me, then this probably isn't your place. I'd definitely stay here again, no question. Thanks to you all!"
