Great hotel but was hard to valet park

Great hotel and great location. Had trouble valet parking because there was a Padres game and the hotel offers valet parking to the baseball fans so if you arrive when a game is starting or letting out you might find yourself trying to park to check in and all the valets are out fetching cars for baseball fans. It’s just something to be aware of as I had to wait a long time to drop my car of for the valet and check in Saturday night.

Disliked: Staff & service
The sliding glass door to the balcony would not close properly. Therefore, there was a constant cold draft, noise and odor from outside. Also, we submitted our ticket to the valet. Waited 20 minutes and learned they had forgotten about us
