We spent about 20 hrs. in airports/airplanes and were exhausted. When we got to San Diego, the airport shuttle arrived within 10 minutes of our phone call, and the front desk had everything ready for us to check in. The room was clean and comfortable. We will use this hotel in the future when flying in and out of San Diego.
