Overall had a nice stay with the exception of the toilet. It was broken and kept running, never filled back up with water. We had to manually fix it each time we used it. We went to the desk three times to report and each time told it was fixed. It would work once and then we were back to fixing it manually. Not what you want to do while you are away. A bit disappointing.

The reason I gave it this score is because they do not offer daily housekeeping services. Staff was nice and breakfast was very good.

Our room looked like it could of used a bit more care, it looked a little beat up...doors and carpet. Our shower water pressure was too low.

The staff was amazing in every way and served my family so well. I can’t thank them enough for helping us enjoy a beautiful stay truly Old Town San Diego is middle ground to all the fun attractions and because we had a vehicle we were able to visit all the stops here in SD. We went to the Balboa Park, Zoo, Petco Park and La Jolla Shores for some fun in the sun. There so much to do in downtown and Seaport Village or Coronado Island. Well back to the property it was a fun stay
