One night stay in San Diego

We had a great stay. Very easy check in and check out. Hotel was really nice and location was perfect. Walking distance to pretty much anything you would want to do in San Diego. Would definitely stay here again. We went the Padre game and then had a great steak dinner at Lou and Mickeys

First and foremost, I don’t ever write reviews so it really takes alot for me to do so. I booked a 1 night 2 bed hotel with the additional charge of parking. I was unable to add the other 3 vehicles online so after booking I called. I was on the phone with a representative who informed me that additional vehicles were going to be charged at the front desk at the same price online. Day of check-in I was informed that the additional vehicles were going to be $50 dollars each, while online i payed $6 for the one truck. I was hugely upset and will no longer be booking future stays at this Hilton.

I was not happy with the help we needed and we did not get it. All we ask was to park on the side of the hotel for one night due to coming back from an event and we was not able to meet the garage height, and the hotel customer service said NO we are sorry.

great property. the staff is very friendly for the most part. unfortunately, the valet at the main entrance is horrible. they show no interest in helping out at all. they didn’t even come to the car to help…we had to get out of the car and walk over to them. when we called to have them bring the car for us later that evening , as we were walking down from the room, they parked our car behind a ton of other parked cars and didn’t even offer to get the car for us. the valet just handed me my keys am told me “ your car is over there”. the couple of times we came in and out of the main entrance the 4 valet attendants were just standing around on their phones. no greeting, no thank you for coming…just faces buried in their phones. very disappointed with that experience. those guys are literally the first impression when you arrive and should at least acknowledge the guests with a genuine welcome.

Loved the hotel. Excellent customer service. Only negative thing is the pool needs to be updated. It is very slippery when you get out. My husband slipped and I saw a couple of other guests slip. The tiles are loose. I hope they fix it because I would like to come back.
