San Diego’s waterfront airport lies northwest of downtown, which is home to the San Diego Convention Center, PetCo Park stadium, and the Gaslamp Quarter’s. That historic neighborhood’s restaurants and bars are the hub of the city’s nightlife. Balboa Park and the San Diego Zoo form a green swath in this urban jungle. Offshore, Coronado Island offers postcard views of the city skyline.

"rock & roll visit"
check in staff was wonderful. very accommodating and thorough in telling us everything happening at the hotel on the dates of our stay. It was wonderful meeting Kayte, the concierge. She treated us very well and got us reservations with the suggestion she gave us for a birthday dinner. The staff made the trip special.
If there was a downside it was no shuttle to the Rock & Roll marathon. Many runners were outside at 5:15 trying to find a way to the race. I ended up gathering 3 runners and used my rental car to transport the group. Seems like a hotel that deals with "rock & roll" should have made accomodations for a shuttle, even if a cost was attached to it.
Other than that, a perfect stay.

"Weekend Getaway"
Me and my girlfriend stayed here for memorial weekend and also to celebrate my birthday. While checking in we were greeted by hotel staff and looked excited for our stay. When we got to our room to get comfortable, we've noticed how dusty the room was. We requested to have a coffee maker be sent up to our room to notice how dusty the coffee maker was also. While Expedia sent me an email asking how check in was, I noted that our room was dusty. I was emailed by the hotel that it will be dealt directly. To notice our return back to the room, that it was not dealt with. We also had Valet parking for our stay as well, the first time we waited for our car was about 20-25 minutes. We were compensated for a $30 rate instead of $45. Valet service was nice but was constantly asking us if we were checking out soon. Overall, with more negatives than positives, I'm sad to say that we will not be returning.
