Overall a nice room
This was in a good location. Close to a lot of shops and restaurants. The room layout is nice and has a kitchen. The room could use a deeper clean like wipe down of walls and behind furniture but overall good. The biggest reason I gave a lower star rating is that we literally got stuck in our room due to a malfunctioning door. Maintenance had to get us out. The front desk seemed apologetic but it was a pretty huge issue.

I cannot rate my stay because they didn’t have a room available for me and wanted to send me across town to somewhere else so I stayed somewhere else. Will never use this hotel brand again.

The Malones Take San Diego
Thanks for Hosting us! The stay was very nice as my family had a good time for the weekend in San Diego. The Hotel stay, although it fit our family of 5 comfortably, wasnt as cleanly as we could have wanted. There were stray hairs throughout, the sink was clogged (but was rectified once we mentioned to the front office),the body wash was empty, and the room was very humid feeling. There is also a $100 refundable fee that they didnt mention when we first came in to pay for our booking.
But aside from all the critical points I mentioned, we did have a great time as the hotel was close to alot of awesome stores, restaurants and the coronado beaches (about 15 min)! Plus
the breakfast was a huge highlight and changed per day.
So if you are looking for a good place to stay for the price, this is a great option just dont be adraid to communcicate if you need something!

My flight was delayed affecting my stay. The place was understanding and accommodating with it. The place had a great pool to access for the kids, a decent kitchen with supplies to use, and was quiet for the stay. I felt safe staying here. I would return for another, if in the area.

Great staff, OLD property
The Staff were all wonderful, kind and accommodating. The free breakfast was the best I have ever had in a hotel. The problems we had were all related to the age and maintenance of the building. The elevator was broken, as was the hot tub (we had really been looking forward to the hot tub!). The couch in the room was horrible with a hard ridge that digs into your back. There is a fireplace but no wood to burn (definitely not a gas unit), who brings wood with them?? The bed sagged in the middle so we both rolled to the center. Then, on our last day, the hot water heater had an issue and they required us to move to a new room, we had had enough and decided to leave a day early. Once again though, the staff was very kind and did not charge us for the last night, even though we were past the check out time.

It was ok.
The tub filled with water and took a while to drain while showering. There was no linen for the sofa bed and I had to go down to the front desk to get everything needed. The sink in the kitchen also backed up and was slow to drain. Otherwise the room was clean and comfortable.
