I was very surprised by this hotel. I have stayed in other hotels in San Diego and this will be my new choice. The free breakfast was more than a continental, it had eggs, bacon, sausage and the other expected items. The location was good and the staff was very friendly. The only negative I found was the parking was... more

I spent three nights at this hotel in late October 2008 and found it to be a great value. The front desk staff were very friendly and accommodating, and the facility was clean and updated. The room that we were originally given smelled strongly of cigarette smoke, despite the property's no-smoking policy. When we asked to change, the staff allowed... more

The hotel itself was fine...nothing great just fine. Their staff on the other hand was absolutely horrific. I been traveling on business for years and never in my life have I dealt with such rude management. I can honestly say the staff spoke for the hotel and it was awful the whole way around! more

I really love this property. I like it's sort of funky 50's architecture yet I could tell that it's been totally redone. I travel a lot for work and have stayed almost everywhere in San Diego. This is really good value for the money I can tell you. No, it's not the W or the Westgate, or any number of... more

Stayed for two nights on weekdays. Location is good, central to most everything downtown/Gaslamp and harbor,, as well as to the I-5 freeway and airport. Finding the place can be a bit difficult, especially with all of th eone way streets. Upon arrival, you park temporarily in a driveway area to check-in, them procees to make three left turns out... more

Myself & my husband stayed here for 4 nights beginning on July 4th. The location of the hotel is good, sort of in the middle of everything. We did rent a car and therefore used the parking garage, which is actually located on 6th, not 7th. We were informed that the charge for parking would be $14 per day (and... more

First visit to San Dieo and wanted a hotel central to everything. Location worked perfect for our visit. It was about 6-10 blocks from the Gaslamp District. Not too bad of a walk at night. Very close to hwy. 5. Not far from the trolley. Hotel was well kept. Room was clean. Bathroom and room a little small, but not... more

I was umming and ahhing for a long time about which hotel to stay in during our thanksgiving visit to San Diego. I eventually went with the Holiday Inn Express because of its proximity to friends and its value for money. I wasn't too sure about what to expect from the actual hotel. When we arrived, the hotel is only... more

The employees at the front desk were kind, bent over backwards to help me, and were knowledgable about the city and transportation around San Diego. They really helped make my trip most enjoyable. The hotel was clean and my room was always made up whenever I returned at the end of the day. I would highly recommend this hotel. more
