Great stay for 3 for parents weekend. Love the small village feel, fully stocked kitchen, amenities, parking convenience/availability, breakfast included and all day coffee/tea availability!!
We really enjoyed staying here. The location was great, it was quiet, clean, and had a great breakfast. We stayed in the family suite with 4 adults and it was so spacious. Would return!
Plenty of space for a large group with everything we needed to make our own meals in the kitchen. We also enjoyed the wide variety of delicious food for breakfast!
We had a pleasant stay. We booked the family suite across from the pool and we were happy with our stay. Breakfast was satisfying. Everything clean and accessible. Loved all the options. Residence inn by Marriott is a beautiful place to stay. Close to a lot. I will come back and stay again! 👍
The room was clean and the housekeeping staff did such a great job making sure that the room was cleaned regularly. The Front desk staff were all very helpful, friendly and very professional. Breakfast was very average but we are not talking about breakfast at places like this being gourmet, etc. Parking was okay and it does cost $30 per car per night. The pool was nice. The gym was adequate. There was an ADA elevator that went from the lobby to the gym level but it didn't work and I was told that it was used for storage. Seems like this needs to be addressed. Overall it was a pleasant stay.
Great stay!!! My daughter was accepted yo UCSD and we went to check out the campus and stayed in family suite. It was amazing staff fantastic and we walked to UCSD campus. Great stay and would stay again and highly recommend it.
The from did have a little smell maybe due to being animal friendly. The overall stay it was roomy for my family of 7 plenty of space to sleep comfortably. The breakfast was good switch options everyday meats same fruits . The option of having hot tea and coffee throughout the day was awesome . The property was smoke free with destination spots which was great and area to cookout . I was having to much fun exploring the city didn’t get in the pool or hot tub . The location was perfect within 15 mins from everywhere in San Diego
Staff is very friendly here and kind. The free continental breakfast had a lot of options, both hot and cold items. Parking was easy. The rooms are older and they do show wear. There was a noticeable damp smell when we walked into our room. There were signs of water damage in bathroom and kitchen areas. The blackout shades were wonderful, but you can hear people walking, talking, etc around the property. They do place a hold on a card, which was fine; however, they also placed a 2nd hold on my card for $40. I talked to the front desk and they said it'll drop off, but they didn't seem to know why the second hold was placed, which was a bit concerning. The initial hold was more than enough for parking, etc.
My nineteen year old daughter and her friend had the best time!! The kitchen was such a bonus. They loved being able to prepare some of their meals in the room over nearly a weeklong stay. They also loved the pool!! Great stay. Thank you!!
