What else can you ask for in San Diego. Right on the Bay that gives you a great view of the ocean, the ships docked on the bay, a great sun rise and a greater sun set. The food is great. I attended a conference at the hotel and the arrangements were great. The staff was completely involved in everything.... More

Great location,very good shuttle service. Clean rooms but worn. Would stay here again anytime and would recommend to friends because of the location to many of the local attractions. Also close to trolley and bus lines and the ferry. More

Im upset that I made this reservation a long time ago, called the service desk and they kept trying to transfer me to someone else instead of helping me. Now that I have checked in I had reserved a water side view room, and because I am a Priority Club member, asked that I be accomodated in a high room... More

We stayed at this hotel to see if it would work if we decided to take a cruise next year. After reading other reviews, most of the negative comments were confirmed. We had a nice bay side view on the South Tower. Big complaint -there was no hot water ( not even enough to have anything but a cold shower).... More

Pro: The location. you are right across the street from the bay. If you don't like the food offered in the hotel there are two more restaurants just across the street and it is just a short walk to the USS Midway and Seaport Village. The trolley tour also has a ticket booth and stop just across the road. The... More

We had no hot water the first morning the mainternace people came and fixed it right away but it never really quite worked properly. The staff was... More

The only good thing about this hotel is the extremely convenient location directly opposite the cruise terminal. Stayed one night on 13th Jan 2012 The room was disappointing, the hotel dated and dreary the view was over the car park. That said it was clean enough and provided you aren't expecting too much then it did the job. More

We also stayed one night on Jan 13, 2012 before the ms Oosterdam. We took the hotel shuttle from the airport which runs every 1/2 hour (or so). Just make sure you are near the beginning of the line in order to get a seat. Check in was OK but there were only two agents on duty and with a... More
