Property is in a preferred area. Away from typical San Diego tourist attractions. This is more of a business environment. Parking spots are a bit tight, though. Makes it difficult to enter or exit vehicles. Staff is very friendly, courteous, and professional. The breakfast buffet and bistro in the lobby are convenient. Starbucks coffee sold on-site.
Food from the breakfast buffet includes, eggs bacon, potatoes, pancakes, toast, etc.
Sofa bed is large enough for 2 adults to fit comfortably.

Property was great. Staff were very friendly and nice. Property was clean and safe. Check in was fast and the breakfast was great. Hospitality staff went above and beyond with my daughter’s eggs and didn’t make her fill like she was being picky. Overall great experience and plan to stay there again when in San Diego.

The hotel itself is okay. Nothing special certainly for the rates they charge. Parking is an additional $18 per night, parking spaces are too narrowly striped for an average sized car, and they run out of spaces after 11 pm. Lastly, one of the front desk clerks was incredibly rude. Nobody told us that the hotel only provides housekeeping every other day (not something you’d anticipate for over $200/night). When I went to the front desk to ask for trash pick up and fresh towels, the employee said someone would be up in 5 minutes. An hour later, I stopped by again only for him to tell me that I told him the wrong room number; he even wrote it down. Yes, not only did I forget the room number, but even the floor we were staying on. People like this should not be stationed at the reception desk. There are many better choices in the San Diego area. For a Marriott property, their service on this occasion was embarrassing.
