Pros: The location was great for us, kind of in the middle of downtown and ocean beach plus nice environment with the harbour right outside. Easiest if you have a car though. The bus to town didn't seem to operate on Sundays.
Cons: The breakfast was not great. Everything is self served on paper plates and plastic cutlery. Even though it was a full breakfast we opted to go to Denny's the second morning. The rooms are fine but don't feel like good quality. Would expect more for the money when the location is not so central.

Pros: Front desk service was courteous, accommodating and prompt. Parking was effortless. Room was clean and spacious, also equipped with essential extras (microwave, mini-fridge). A good value for the price paid.
Cons: A good variety of breakfast items but the bread, bagels, and English muffins tasted stale and smelled slightly sour. Otherwise, food was great.

Pros: The eggs were fluffy and free. They gave us extra towels when we needed them. And, the location was the only reason to ever stay at this hotel.
Cons: Rooms were very small for the price we paid. Pool was tiny, cold and not private at all. We had plenty to do away from the hotel, and that was a good thing.

Pros: The breakfast was good, hot eggs everyday were appreciated, they need more fruit though. Location was great. Free parking also appreciated.
Cons: Although the repairs were made fairly quickly the air conditioning stopped working for one night and on another evening we requested additional towels and they never showed up. Other than that the staff was very friendly and helpful.

Pros: I booked this hotel last minute, with some hesitation after reading some of the reviews. However, I don't know where these people came from giving bad reviews, I had an amazing experience! The staff was amazing, my room was fantastic, the view from my room of the Harbor was incredible, room was spacious, very clean, comfy bed, very quiet, centrally located, I really have no complaints! I'll DEFINITELY stay here for my next SD visit! Oh, and Parking is FREE!
Cons: My only, and I mean ONlLY thing I didn't like that I would point out is there is not an elevator to the guest rooms from the garage .... They have carts available for your luggage so really? Who cares?

Pros: The staff were friendly and there was plenty of food in the morning, lots to choose from. The harbor view was great. Nice to have coffee in the lobby, I was able to get one right when I arrived, and all thru the day coming and going.
Cons: Just wish the breakfast would be open later until 10 am so we could sleep in.

Pros: Location was excellent for us.beds where comfortable and couldn't fault the room at all.
Cons: Being Brits it seem the norm to put us either at the back of the hotel or side rooms overlooking the refuse bins,therefore getting woken early by bins being scrapped around.would be nice to have got a room overlooking something more pleasant.

08-31-2016
Pros: Free car parking. Cable TV. Free Coffee in reception.
Cons: Very noisy hotel! Linen room on same floor with guest rooms, so all below, beside and above can be woken by laundry machines at 7am. Trucks reversing outside early. No elevator from carpark so luggage needs to be brought up some stairs. Airplanes flying over. Chairs scraping on balconies above is shockingly loud.
Breakfast is poor and in a horrible room. No butter, just margarine, nasty tasting pastries. Pancake machine makes 2 tiny pancakes in well over a minute but no waffles.
They will allocate you a ground floor or 2nd floor room on the carpark side facing the holiday inn (and call it a city view) when you use booking.com to reserve your room. Be warned.
Property is tired.
Pool is tiny and next to the roadside.
Very expensive for what it is and where its located. Use one of the hotels in the hotel circle - better value.
