I went to San Diego on a business trip and found a small hotel like a motel. A very bad experience was that the parking lot was right in front of the room... There were noises as I walked by, and the hotel check-in was slow. Although the room is old, it is clean. What I don't understand is that there is no mineral water in the room. You have to buy it separately. You have to go to the front desk to buy it because of the room service.
The harbor outside the hotel and the yacht dock behind it are plus points. The scenery is beautiful and it is safe to live here.
The room rate does not include breakfast. It is recommended that you have breakfast, lunch and dinner at the hotel restaurant. The food is really good! delicious! !

The hotel is located on a peninsula next to Shelter Island Marina, a yacht pier. It has charming scenery and elegant environment. You can enjoy the sunset at the door of the sea view room, and you can see the aircraft carriers of the naval base from the sea in front of the lobby. There are good seafood restaurants in the town and the hotel restaurant is also very good.

The room had a view of the coastal parking lot, was clean, and was a hotel not far from downtown San Diego.

The room is on the seaside. The scenery is very beautiful. The lobby is grand. I sat on the seaside with a yacht for breakfast and was basking in the warm sunshine. It was very comfortable. However, the air conditioning and heating were very loud and noisy. The overall experience was satisfactory👍

I was very dissatisfied. I paid the hotel 25 dollars in cash for the parking fee, and then deducted 25 dollars from the credit card deposit. I entrusted Ctrip to assist with the process. After more than a month of processing, there was still no feedback. I have never seen such poor service.

Super poor room, the air conditioner sounded like thunder, the room on the first floor had no windows for ventilation, the room was dark and damp, with a musty smell! It's just not worth it. There are too many mirrors in the room, I dare not wash them in the shower at night
