Everything was great except the valet parking it was not included and $50 a night seems a little extreme.

Could’ve Been Worse, I guess.
OK stay. Would not stay here again. The description says that parking is available, but what they neglect to tell you until after you get there and check in is that the only parking they offer is valet parking at $50/night so I ended up paying as there wasn’t any free parking available by the time I got there. They also won’t tell you this until you ask, but there’s free street parking on 2nd Ave/Cedar that’s almost always full no matter what time of the day it is. I’m extremely upset about this and wish I could get that $50 back. Pretty inconvenient. Bums on the sidewalks. Can’t speak for all the rooms but mine had a very dirty towel wedged in between the wall and heater/AC unit that room service never noticed. Random stains on the walls that didn’t look pleasant. Toilets aren’t the best at flushing. The best thing I could say is that the staff is friendly.

Excellent location
Excellent location that allowed us to walk to Balboa Park and Little Italy (30-45 min) so we could skip renting a car. Very decent, clean, comfortable, good value for San Diego. Enjoyed our Bay view. Only thing was the immediate surrounding neighborhood is next to freeway, with gritty feel (e.g., unhoused persons), so advise being alert when you walk. Would stay here again.
