We had a room with a air tunnel immediately next to the bed, which made a constant noise throughout the night, even with the AC turned off. The staff just shrugged their shoulders when I told them the day after. Also, the parking is very expensive, there is only the valet option at $65 dollars per night. The location is very convenient for walking close to the ocean.

Rip off, when it comes to charges especially the daily $25 daily mandatory charged, and there's a $3.44 daily charge for tax - transit occupancy. What is that? San Diego is expensive , they don’t need to add more, and forget about help with your luggage when you are checking out, we had to make two trips taking our r luggage to the parking to pick our car.
