It's not top of the line, you have to take your own bags to your room, it is very clean but the cleaning crew knock on your door at about 8:30am. The hotel is in a part of San Diego called Hotel Circle and it's about 10 minutes away from S... expedia.com

We then got locked out of the ... expedia.com
Amazing Service! - user review We loved this hotel; the service was fantastic. Everyone there was so helpful.
