The room and views were great. However, the hotel was full, so the staff was not very accommodating when breakfast took longer than expected, and we needed an extra 15 minutes to remove our luggage. We are Hilton Honors members.

Just okay.

Food was overpriced and only marginal. Hot tub (jets) were out of order. The hot tub was the sole reason for booking the hotel. Property was worn. It seems to be understaffed.

I LOVED my stay here! The room was clean, the hotel was beautiful with a view of the Bay across the street, and the staff was lovely and welcoming! When the agents found out I had been accepted to law school there, they made me a sign! They were amazing! Shoutout to Kenzi for having my room ready early and the two guys at night who gave me late night food options! (Can’t remember their names) I did have a red stain on my comforter when I got to my room but that was remedied immediately by giving me a new one and an extra blanket. Please stay here if you’re visiting the Downtown San Diego area! 10/10!

There is no self parking. You have to valet and that's $60 a night! I honestly don't remember that being on their website; so, that was a surprise fee.
