We ate breakfast at the restaurant Mary Jane's. The food was good, and the service was good. The front desk staff were nice and responsive. Housecleaning did a great job and changed their schedule when we were not ready for the room to be cleaned.

The room, did not have netflix, the windows were super dirty could not see ANYTHING clearly outside of the room, asked to have room cleaned everyday (3 night stay) and it was only cleaned once (only bed sheets changed and new towels towels added the trash was not even changed, AND the cherry on top, our hot water never worked!!! We called twice the same night to let maintenance know, the first time they told us to leave it on for 5 minutes and then check…. an insult honestly to suggest we had not tried that several times… and then the second time we got put on hold for like 10 minutes so we hung up, the second night we called and they told us they could send someone up, they did, the guy did NOTHING only “checked” the top of the shower and then magically hot water cane out, we asked if we had to do something differently and he said no, right after he left the water stayed for for 3 minutes (we timed it) and proceeded to not be able to shower, it was such a bad experience honestly because we stayed here because we wanted the comfort of proximity, to not go all the way home because we were attending a 2 day festival at Petco Park, which I guess we should have just gone home honestly to not have these type of problems, and then the fridge was full so we had to take out all of the mini bar items to store drinks we actually needed like gatorades and juice not just alcoholic beverages, such a disappointing stay its sad to see that we have such a low hospitality attitude in SD
