7.4/10

I loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms had great access to power outlets which was perfect for my work needs, but they were a bit small for the price. However, the comfort and the corner balcony made up for it. The service was exceptional, going above and beyond to make me feel welcome. The location was superb in a nice part of San Diego, although there were some minor issues with smells around the hotel. The dining experience was okay, but a bit pricey for what was offered. Overall, a great value for the money.

The service was outstanding, from the warm greeting to the thoughtful gesture of offering me a bag for some food to go. They even helped me get a discount on the self-parking, which is actually managed by another company.

The hotel offers fair value for money with nice rooms ideal for a business traveler but standard amenities. The service was helpful and customer-oriented, enhancing the overall experience. The location was excellent but lacked some expected features for this class of hotel. The dining experience varied in quality and price, with room for improvement. The facilities were standard but satisfactory for a comfortable stay.

The staff was very helpful from the moment we arrived, even going above and beyond by offering a to-go bag for food. They respected privacy by not entering unless requested, ensuring the best service for customers.

Location

8.0

The hotel's great location near a shopping center was excellent and perfect for our needs. However, the absence of safety deposit boxes in every room was a small drawback.

Dining

6.0

The dining options were standard with mixed quality and additional fees. The fresh, made-from-scratch pizza stood out among other offerings, but pricing could be more transparent.

I was pleased with the spacious and well-equipped rooms at this Marriott. However, the noise from loud cheerleaders running in the halls was a bit of a disturbance. The hotel could benefit from some upgrades considering the surrounding area.

Rooms

7.0

The rooms were clean, spacious, and had all the amenities expected from a Marriott. The huge flat screen was a nice touch, although I found the noise from the cheerleaders disruptive. An upgrade would enhance the experience.

Service

6.0

The service was satisfactory overall. I did find it a bit disappointing to be charged $12 for a drink that was only filled one-third of the glass. It would have been better if they were more attentive and proactive.

Location

The hotel is situated in a fairly convenient area, making it easy to get around La Jolla. However, the presence of sewer smells near the sink area and garage detracted a bit from the experience.

Dining

The dining experience was average. While the breakfast served was okay, the high prices, especially $25 for just coffee, felt excessive. There were also issues of items running out or delays in replenishing.
