The area overall is nice. Very close to shops. The hotel itself is very nice, as well. The room was very clean. No complaints here. As for the staff, they are very friendly and accommodating. We had to cut our stay short due to circumstances, but the front desk was able to help with the cancellations. No hassle at all. Highly recommend giving this hotel a try. We definitely have a place to stay when heading down to San Diego. Thank you Sonesta!

It is very family friendly especially with the Kitchenette! It made our stay with a small baby so much more easier because we had somewhere to wash bottles and store things in the fridge and even came with a completely dish soap and sponge that I thought was so nice because I didn’t even think that a place would consider those small details!

We enjoyed our recent visit and would definitely choose this place again. We would have given it 5 stars, but we had to go to the desk to get bedding for the sofa bed. When you have been traveling and are ready to crash, it is frustrating to go all the way back to the desk to get bedding when we had just left the deak for check in. We also had to have the tub unplugged twice. Otherwise... it was a really lovely place with a hearty breakfast!

This property is conveniently located near restaurants, grocery stores, and the freeway. The staff was inviting, friendly, and accommodating. The full breakfast buffet was had a wide variety of goodies. The pool and jacuzzi was inviting and relaxing. There were many more amenities we didn’t explore: exercise room, barbecue area, corn hole lawn game, and basketball mini court. Aside from the $10 daily parking fee, I would return to this property in the future.

Great appartment, with all required utensils and fixings. Beautiful pool. Had to request towel changes every few days. Pool towels always had to collected before a swim as none were in the towel storage at the pool. Breakfast was great but hours were too early or too short. Needed to be until 9 or later every morning.

The check in process was quick, the room was clean, the local community has a lot of stores and restaurants. The breakfast was good and the kitchen staff awesome. The only negative that I have was that housekeeping left some laundry bins in plain sight for lost of the day…nobody wants to see that.

Tucked away, this property had everything. And nice added touches to a suite with a kitchen. Although I didn't need all the extras, they were there. I felt safe, enjoyed the pool (warm), and the staff were professional and courteous. I will stay again. Thank you.
