    Albergo nella media per la catena Best Western. Molto comoda la posizione e fondamentale, per stare a downtown, la possibilità di parcheggio, che però si paga a parte USD 20 per notte anticipatamente. Carino il giardino ed il rooftop che da aria anche se circondato da grattacieli. Stanza abbastanza ampia ma piuttosto datata. Bagno piccolo ed ugualmente un po' datato. Comunque tranquillo. Colazione forse da migliorare, con una scelta non molto varia. Piccolo anche il locale dedicato a questa ma con la possibilità, tempo e ospiti permettendo, di sistemarsi anche fuori sul patio. Prezzi un po' elevati per un BW ma da considerare la posizione che in parte lo giustifica. Nel complesso abbastanza soddisfatto.

    I would call this a motel-style lodge as it is L shaped and only two stories with limited parking. We flew in and took public transportation to avoid the $20/day charge for parking. You may be able to find parking on the street, but I noticed that parking enforcement seemed very active in and around that area. I would describe the hotel and lodging as humble and quaint. The delicious continental breakfast was a deciding factor on our stay as many of the other hotels did not offer a complimentary breakfast. We have stayed at several Best Western locations and this has been our favorite breakfast so far. There was a refrigerator in the room as well a Starbucks K-cup coffee maker, but no microwave. The front desk did offer us to use the breakfast room microwave if we needed, though. The refrigerator allowed us to save money on leftovers and food. This hotel also offers filtered water, next to the ice machine, which was great because we avoided buying bottled water. The hotel grounds are amazingly landscaped and lit up at night. We enjoyed the rooftop "garden" or gathering spot. The front desk was impeccable and met all of our requests/needs. This is a great location, near freeways, and public transportation. It is near the Gaslamp and just about everything you would want to see - especially if you like walking and don't mind taking the bus or trolley. We went to Coronado Island, the SD Zoo, to/from airport on bus, and took the trolley to old town. We were a bit surprised when we arrived as we thought it was a multi-story sky-rise based on one of the pictures, but it was just the building behind it. We would like to thank Olivia, GM, for her attention towards us. From the moment we checked in to check out, she was always helpful and went above and beyond for us. The housekeepers were also very attentive.

    Camere comode, bagno piccolo ma con tutto il necessario. abbiamo avuto problemi con un motore di un condizionatore fuori la stanza che tutta la notte nn ha fatto molto rumore. Colazione varia e buona sia dolce che salata. Lo staff alla reception molto gentile. La pulizia delle camere ha disturbato alle 8 di mattina il giorno del check in, da rivedere. Parcheggio pagato con supplemento di 20€ al giorno

    Loved our stay here. Besides the great location, the staff was very nice and hard working. Something that is rare these days. Best breakfast with lots of options and love; in a clean and comfortable environment. Rooftop area is a great place to relax and enjoy your afternoons. Lots of great details that show they really care about the guest experience. Keep up the good work.🤗

    BED BUG INFESTATION and UNRESPONSIVE MANAGEMENT. Unacceptable Bed Bug Experience. I checked in late on August 14th and discovered a bed bug on the bed across from me the next morning. I have video evidence of the bed bug. I immediately reported this to management, who were unhelpful and suggested the bed bug originated from my luggage. This is highly unlikely as my luggage was near the entrance, and I woke up with numerous bites on my leg from the bed I slept in. Management refused to consider any compensation without a doctor's note, which is an unreasonable requirement. I cannot recommend staying here due to the bed bug issue and the poor handling of the situation.
