Hotel might have bed bugs or fleas in the room, or they maybeen in the outside areas? My wife & and I were both bitten.

The room we stayed in was loud, and I was unable to sleep well. Between the toilet water running and very loud air conditioner, I got very little sleep. We've stayed here many times and had not had issues, but this particular room was not a good experience.

I liked the pool and area near a few things to do.

I think 35 per night for a parking spot is exorbitant

pool was nice for our two grandchildren

Parking very tight. Spaces very narrow.

Location great. Easy to access beach areas and freeways.

The room had a slightly musty smell, like maybe they had shampooed the carpets prior to our arrival.

The location was beautiful -- we were able to take some nice walks along the bay. We appreciated having an onsite restaurant for breakfast. We travel full-time, so the onsite laundry was a huge plus, especially with the app so we didn't need coins.

Room was a little plain and dated. Car noise can be annoying but generally isn’t an issue after 10pm.

Close to Mission Bay Yacht Club, easy access from SD. Firefly restaurant was terrific with lots of options and reasonable prices.

Information in room was non-existent. No helpful list of different things to do, restaurant numbers in area. No bible, but honestly that could have been business choice. The only pamphlets were 4 single cards that were so general, they weren't really helpful. The breakfast buffet was no longer available, only ordered breakfast, not a big deal, but information that needed to be updated on website. Cost cutting was apparent with the in room amenities and other services. It could be socio-economic issues are causing a few of these cut backs, but it was definitely a detracting from the stay

The room was wonderful, renovated, and the view was wonderful. The staff was helpful, but didn't really follow through. I asked for coffee for the room, and it took 1hr to get it. Promised within 10 minutes.

Firefly restaurant was just average.

Close to water and quiet

Nothing to complain about. Would stay again.

Great location, spacious room with all amenities and comfortable bed. Very clean. Staff friendly and attentive. Super scenic walks around the bay area and easy walk to beach. Bus stop right outside hotel with connection to city so great for non drivers.

We got the noisiest room close to the road. If you get to offer a room stars with 7, refuse it. The road is extremely noisy by loud cars and the trucks going in and out makes it even worse.

Nice location and easy to get to SeaWorld. Room was good and clean. Restaurant and pool areas were great too.

Needed to have fresh milk or half and half for coffee in the lobby. Set up a dog potty area.

My husband, our dog, and I stayed for 3 nights. Although the hotel was built quite a while ago, it is clean, modern, and so cozy. The landscaping is lush with palms everywhere. The quiet location on the bay was so peaceful. Families seemed to be having a great time in the pool with a nightly movie shown poolside. The staff were all very friendly. We felt very comfortable here.

i didn't like the cost of parking and the fact our side didn't have a ton of spots so we had to park in a different area and walk a few times

i loved the room we had. it was 3rd flood and had a nice balcony and a great view. the room was great with plenty of room hang out and relax. the property was beautiful to walk around and very well maintained. there is a lot of stuff to do in the area, and the boardwalk with teh rollercoaster down the street was a lot of fun

The tables around the pool and at the restaurant very often were dirty.... Restaurant and room service was not available on Thursday evening , our last day of our stay. Me and my 3 children were not allowed and we also couldn't order room service...we went to bed after a long day trip without any dinner

Breakfast and the people serving breakfast was great Reception front desk: amazing! Very friendly and helpful

A little more insulation in the walls. We could literally hear just about everything the neighbors said.

Dinner was great and the grounds were beautiful.

The walls are extremely thin—you can hear everything happening in the rooms next door and the one above. I was woken up several times by loud footsteps in the apartment upstairs. And early each morning, a truck unloading items right outside the room disrupted my sleep. All the beaches are far away, so you need a car to go back and forth.

Very close to SeaWorld—you can watch the nightly fireworks from the hotel every day. The restaurant’s food is very good, but the menu is limited. The two pools are nice, but they’re the only leisure option;

Location for our boat trip Good size room

The air conditioner in the bathroom. Very strange and at night did not really cool the room off.

Breakfast was excellent. Waiters were very attentive and food was plenty. In fact we shared the pancakes - very good!

I do wish the rooms around the tropical pool had a balcony...I understand why they don't due to the year built and amenities desired back then. It was still enjoyable to overlook the pool.

Great location. Staff was very pleasant. Bobby at the Firefly was incredible - as he said - hospitality is their specialty. Grounds are well kept and provide a great tropical feel like we've been swept away to a southern pacific island.

Had to call multiple times over first two days regarding a faulty AC. After having to wait another day they removed our parking charge and they replaced AC unit following AM. Interior wasn't very attractive. Looked quite aged.

Staff was very friendly. Pool/Bar/Hot tub area was fun. Food at Firefly was good.

Stayed in July 2025

We’d prefer bigger towels in the swimming pool.

Swimming pool, cleanliness, welcoming staff, games for kids, room facilities (mini fridge, microwave, coffee maker in the room)
