• Beautiful room and grounds.
• They charge daily for parking! They also charge for the newspaper that we get free at other places.

“Nice property, but are they so hard up they have to charge for parking and the newspaper?”

• The bed was great! Very comfortable and the sheets and pillows were very comfortable. The layout of the room was very nice.
• The breakfast buffet was not very good. I was a little disappointed. Also, I was surprised there was no mini frig microwave in room.

“Doubletree of San Diego was a very nice hotel. I was very impressed with the large room and bed. It was very comfortable for rest and relaxation. The bathroom was large as well.”

• The beds are very comfortable and the cookies they give you at check in are amazing!
• The style of the exterior of the building was a bit dated, but well maintained, so not really a negative.

“We were very pleased with the Double Tree resort San Diego. The resort met or exceeded our expectations in all the areas that were important to us. The rooms were clean, the beds were very comfortable and the hotel staff was pleasant and helpful. And they give you these wonderful cookies when you check in! We went back each afternoon for more cookies because we started craving them. And the staff was always happy to give them to us! We were very happy with our experience.”

• Great location with ready access to the freeway.
• The condition of the room was very poor. Sink pulled away from wall. Mold in tub. etc.

“The hotel is terrific. No lighting in front of the room which was tucked away under a stairwell. Very dangerous at night as the area was extremely dark. The tub had mold on the tiles near the ceiling. The wallpaper in the bathroom was pulling away and significantly in need of repair and the sink was not bolted to the wall. I love the location and was thrilled to get to stay there but was ultimately unimpressed by the condition of the assigned room.”

• The golf course was quite fun!
• I did not like looking across into other rooms. Did not feel I could open curtains.

“This is the second time we've stayed in this hotel. It's a very nice hotel/golf course with shopping and restaurants close by. It's easy accessibility to all the freeways make it a convenient place to stay while vacationing in San Diego. Plus, it has feather pillows!”

• The room was very spacious.
• The bed was not that comfortable. $8 to park in their parking lot was crazy!

“This hotel was in a great location. I would suggest a room more in the middle of the property. Also paying to park was something I thought a bit silly. The room was very spacious and had 3 sinks which worked great for us, since we brought our 3 year old. The cookies were yummy too! I would stay here again.”

• Cookies at check in were excellent.
• Room was far away from parking.

“Room was nice, Only two problems our room was all the way to the back of the resort. We had our entire luggage and no help offered to get it to our room. We had to make several trips ourselves and it was about a 10 min walk. The other thing we called the front desk to ask a question and they answered and said "we know we are trying to get it fixed". We asked what they were talking about and they said "the fire alarm". We explained to them that the alarm wasn't going off in our room and they said "Get out anyway and go down to the parking lot and wait for instructions" We went down in the rain we stood there the fire truck left and no one ever came and talked to us.”

• No in room refrigerator, parking charge.

“This is a fine hotel. The room was clean and well maintained. The service was friendly and prompt. The wireless internet connection was very good. The hotel was very easy to access from the freeway. I didn't like the fact that you had to pay a daily parking charge, and the fact that there was no in room refrigerator. But overall, it was an excellent hotel.”

• Quiet, serene setting nestled in trees.
• The maze of walking to the rooms, no end elevators.

“I was mostly satisfied with this booking, except for the ease of getting to one's room. Unless you are book in the precise main building, there is no elevator access to upper levels. Instead one must wander through what seems like an endless maze to get from the lobby to the room, from the parking lot to the room, from the room to the pool area, etc. Etc. Plus the stairs. Difficult for people with walking disabilities.”

• Free internet.
• They charge for parking and mini fridge.

“I don't agree that you should have to pay for parking when the hotel is located in the suburbs of the city, 30 + from downtown San Diego. In addition, they were charging $10/day for a mini fridge to keep baby formula, what it someone was diabetic? Not exactly family friendly. But the over all experience was good. The hotel was clean and the staff was nice. 3-star moderate hotel.”

• Some staff was amazing.
• The manager was horrible.

“Do not stay at this hotel if you are looking for peace and quiet. While the price and room were nice, the staff has no consideration for their guests. Sunday morning before 7am, we heard banging and scraping and slamming. We thought it was other guests getting ready to check out or kids or something. The fact is, they were laying new carpet in both rooms on either side of us. I was shocked. A few times it sounded like they dropped an entire armoire on the floor. Our whole room shook more than once. We complained to the on duty manager when we checked out and she said, "sorry, Ill talk to the engineers about it". That was it. I wouldn't stay here again at any price.”

• Huge room!
• Bed too high in handicapped-accessible room.

“Hotel was booked for visiting, elderly parents needing a handicapped-accessible facility. My parents only slept and showered there. No other hotel services were utilized during this stay. Their room was huge, with enough space for two motorized scooters to be kept inside. However, the accessible bathroom is poorly designed; the shower bottom doesn't have a "lip;" rather, the water drains into the middle of the floor, making ten entire bathroom slippery (i.e. Dangerous). The commode was very low (should have had a higher seat to be considered "accessible"). And although very comfortable, the beds were really too high for an accessible room. This was a week-long stay at the hotel. At the beginning of the stay, the bathroom drain was plugged and there was some leakage into the room below. Also, the hair dryer unit kept falling off the wall. Hotel staff tended to these problems when my parents didn't stay @ the hotel the 3rd night of their visit to California.”
