Great hotel in Chula Vista, 15 mins from San Diego Zoo, SeaWorld or downtown San Diego. Friendly staff, decent breakfast, Suite was comfy with plenty of room for our family of 5 ("kids" are 22, 20, and 16). Will definitely stay there again when we make a trip to San Diego.

Me and my wife were visiting our kids and decided to stay here. We made a wonderful choice to stay here. First we got there before the check in time. Ramona at the front desk help us get a room early and we are so appreciative of it after a six hour flight. Remind went above and beyond for us. We come to San Diego every year and will definitely stay here again.

The size of the family room is great. The hotel itself is dated and could do with a refurbishment..staff were excellent. Breakfast included was a bonus, however there is limited seating. Over all was a great stay
