Horrible Service
Only one elevator was working, took 20 minutes to get to the floor and staff was nonchalant about it. Made me feel like I did a horrible choice staying there …

The property was under construction maybe, and they made us pay $50 per night for valet parking because of the construction. Only one elevator works so makes everything take long. It was a decent property but they can do better

Property is under renovation or repairs so a bit noisy during the day. The elevators are very slow probably due to construction. The hot water temp was only Luke warm. However the price for the night was really reasonable for Downtown San Diego.
